Lai Jiangshan 84f91c62d6 workqueue: Remove the cacheline_aligned for nr_running
nr_running is never modified remotely after the schedule callback in
wakeup path is removed.

Rather nr_running is often accessed with other fields in the pool
together, so the cacheline_aligned for nr_running isn't needed.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
