A work is linked to the next one by having WORK_STRUCT_LINKED bit set and these links can be chained. When a linked work is dispatched to a worker, all linked works are dispatched to the worker's newly added ->scheduled queue and processed back-to-back. Currently, as there's only single worker per cwq, having linked works doesn't make any visible behavior difference. This change is to prepare for multiple shared workers per cpu.
