Yeah, it's gonna be killed. The commit is there because the behavior change broke things. We don't want to guarantee it but have been and can't change it right away just because we don't like it when things may break from it. The plan is to implement a debug option to force workqueue to always execute these work items on a foreign cpu to weed out breakages. Thanks. -- tejun
