this slow_work_wait_for_items() function should move into the #ifdef
block too.

With that fixed it looks good to me for .33 (but i havent tested it):

Acked-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@xxxxxxx>

In terms of .32 i guess it's OK too and the fix is needed - but i'd
really not have done even the preceding changes - why again did we need
/proc/slow_work_rq via 8fba10a and why did it have to happen right
before the final kernel?

If then it should have been done in debugfs - we dont need yet another
/proc ABI.

Also, a very small aesthetic detail: i think the title should use the
'slow-work: ' prefix, not 'SLOW_WORK: '.

Thanks,

Ingo
