Merge branch 'for-4.5-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq

Pull workqueue fixes from Tejun Heo:
 "Workqueue fixes for v4.5-rc3.

   - Remove a spurious triggering of flush dependency warning.

   - Officially break local execution guarantee of unbound work items
     and add a debug feature to flush out usages which depend on it.

   - Work around CPU -> NODE mapping becoming invalid on CPU offline.

  The branch is young but pushing out early as stable kernels are being
  affected"
