Yeah, that works too. I was still targeting 3.19 window and some of
the conversion patches were conflicting, so thought it'd be easier
through -mm.

Given that the changes aren't that invasive, I think it'd be still a
good idea to merge the workqueue debugging during this merge window as
it gives a lot more visibility into tricky issues. Once it's agreed
on, I'll try to route the feature patches (the first two from this
series + actual workqueue changes) early through wq branch.

Thanks.
