- * Made to use alloc_percpu by Christoph Lameter.
+ * This is the generic async execution mechanism.  Work items as are
+ * executed in process context.  The worker pool is shared and
+ * automatically managed.  There is one worker pool for each CPU and
+ * one extra for works which are better served by workers which are
+ * not bound to any specific CPU.
+ *
+ * Please read Documentation/workqueue.txt for details.
