Subject[PATCH] speedup flush_workqueue for singlethread_workqueue
Date
	In the flush_workqueue function for a single_threaded_worqueue case the code seemed to loop the same cpu_workqueue_struct
for each_online_cpu's. The attached patch checks this condition and bails out of for loop there by speeding up the flush_workqueue
for a singlethreaded_workqueue.

Please apply.

Thanks,
-anil
