workqueue: Move pwq->max_active to wq->max_active



max_active is a workqueue-wide setting and the configured value is stored in
wq->saved_max_active; however, the effective value was stored in
pwq->max_active. While this is harmless, it makes max_active update process
more complicated and gets in the way of the planned max_active semantic
updates for unbound workqueues.

This patches moves pwq->max_active to wq->max_active. This simplifies the
code and makes freezing and noop max_active updates cheaper too. No
user-visible behavior change is intended.

As wq->max_active is updated while holding wq mutex but read without any
locking, it now uses WRITE/READ_ONCE(). A new locking locking rule WO is
added for it.

v2: wq->max_active now uses WRITE/READ_ONCE() as suggested by Lai.
