Calling kthread_run with a single name parameter causes it to be handled
as a format string. Many callers are passing potentially dynamic string
content, so use "%s" in those cases to avoid any potential accidents.

For the workqueue creation interfaces that do not expect format strings,
make sure they cannot accidently be parsed that way. Additionally, clean
up calls made with a single parameter that would be handled as a format
string. Many callers are passing potentially dynamic string content, so
use "%s" in those cases to avoid any potential accidents.

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
"Surprisingly, Lai and I didn't break too many things implementing
custom pools and stuff last time around and there aren't any follow-up
changes necessary at this point.
The only change in this pull request is Viresh's patches to make some
per-cpu workqueues to behave as unbound workqueues dependent on a boot
param whose default can be configured via a config option. This leads
to higher processing overhead / lower bandwidth as more work items are
bounced across CPUs; however, it can lead to noticeable powersave in
certain configurations - ~10% w/ idlish constant workload on a
big.LITTLE configuration according to Viresh.
This is because per-cpu workqueues interfere with how the scheduler
perceives whether or not each CPU is idle by forcing pinned tasks on
them, which makes the scheduler's power-aware scheduling decisions
less effective.
Its effectiveness is likely less pronounced on homogenous
configurations and this type of optimization can probably be made
automatic; however, the changes are pretty minimal and the affected
workqueues are clearly marked, so it's an easy gain for some
configurations for the time being with pretty unintrusive changes."

When the EEH error is the result of a fenced host bridge, MMIO accesses
can be very slow (milliseconds) to timeout and return all 1's,
thus causing the driver various timeout loops to take way too long and
trigger soft-lockup warnings (in addition to taking minutes to recover).
It might be worthwhile to check if for any of these cases, ffffffff is
a valid possible value, and if not, bail early since that means the HW
is either gone or isolated. In the meantime, checking that the PCI channel
is offline would be workaround of the problem.

Due to obviously missing braces, EESR.TABT (transmit abort) interrupt may be
reported even if it hasn't happened, just when EESR.TWB (transmit descriptor
write-back) interrupt happens. Luckily (?), EESR.TWB is disabled by the driver
via the TRIMD register and all the interrupt masks, so that transmit abort is
never actually logged...
Put the braces where they should be and fix the incoherent comment, while at it.

EESR.RFE (receive FIFO overflow) interrupt is enabled by the driver on all SoCs
and sh_eth_error() handles it but it's not present in any initializer/assignment
of the 'eesr_err_check' field of 'struct sh_eth_cpu_data'. This leads to that
interrupt not being handled and cleared, and finally to disabling IRQ and the
driver being non-functional.
Modify DEFAULT_EESR_ERR_CHECK macro and all explicit initializers of the above
mentioned field to contain the EESR.RFE bit. Remove useless backslashes from the
initializers, while at it.
