[RFC PATCH 06/10] perf workqueue: introduce workqueue struct

From: Riccardo Mancini
Date: Tue Jul 13 2021 - 08:11:52 EST


This patch adds the workqueue definition, along with simple creation and
destruction functions.
Furthermore, a simple subtest is added.

A workqueue is attached to a pool, on which it executes its workers.
Next patches will introduce workers.
