6.8-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman gregkh@linuxfoundation.org
This reverts commit 0c4ce23e6323e52d0590e78825cd3c63323d7a52 which is commit a045a272d887575da17ad86d6573e82871b50c27 upstream.
The workqueue patches backported to 6.8.y caused some reported regressions, so revert them for now.
