workqueue: use hotcpu_notifier() for workqueue_cpu_down_callback()
workqueue_cpu_down_callback() is used only if HOTPLUG_CPU=y, so
hotcpu_notifier() fits better than cpu_notifier().
When HOTPLUG_CPU=y, hotcpu_notifier() and cpu_notifier() are the same.
When HOTPLUG_CPU=n, if we use cpu_notifier(),
workqueue_cpu_down_callback() will be called during boot to do
nothing, and the memory of workqueue_cpu_down_callback() and
gcwq_unbind_fn() will be discarded after boot.
If we use hotcpu_notifier(), we can avoid the no-op call of
workqueue_cpu_down_callback() and the memory of
workqueue_cpu_down_callback() and gcwq_unbind_fn() will be discard at
build time:
