[PATCH v3 2/2] rust: add system_percpu() around the new system_percpu_wq

From: Marco Crivellari
Date: Wed Oct 08 2025 - 11:17:03 EST


The C code defines 2 new workqueues: system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq,
respectively the futures replacement for system_wq and system_unbound_wq.

This change introduce system_percpu(), that use the new system_percpu_wq.

system_wq will be replaced in a future release cycle and should
not be used.
