workqueue: fix race condition in schedule_on_each_cpu()
Commit 65a64464349883891e21e74af16c05d6e1eeb4e9 ("HWPOISON: Allow schedule_on_each_cpu() from keventd") which allows schedule_on_each_cpu() to be called from keventd added a race condition. schedule_on_each_cpu() may race with cpu hotplug and end up executing the function twice on a cpu. Fix it by moving direct execution into the section protected with get/put_online_cpus(). While at it, update code such that direct execution is done after works have been scheduled for all other cpus and drop unnecessary cpu != orig test from flush loop.
