Oleg Nesterov b415c49a86 slow_work_thread() should do the exclusive wait
slow_work_thread() sleeps on slow_work_thread_wq without WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE,
this means that slow_work_enqueue()->__wake_up(nr_exclusive => 1) wakes up all
kslowd threads.  This is not what we want, so we change slow_work_thread() to
use prepare_to_wait_exclusive() instead.

*
* The item is pinned by this function as it retains a reference to it, managed
* through the item operations. The item is unpinned once it has been
* executed.
*
* An item may hog the thread that is running it for a relatively large amount
* of time, sufficient, for example, to perform several lookup, mkdir, create
* and setxattr operations. It may sleep on I/O and may sleep to obtain locks.
*
* Conversely, if a number of items are awaiting processing, it may take some
* time before any given item is given attention. The number of threads in the
* pool may be increased to deal with demand, but only up to a limit.
*
* If SLOW_WORK_VERY_SLOW is set on the work item, then it will be placed in
* the very slow queue, from which only a portion of the threads will be
* allowed to pick items to execute. This ensures that very slow items won't
* overly block ones that are just ordinarily slow.
