workqueue: Add pool_workqueue to pending_pwqs list when unplugging multiple inactive works
In unplug_oldest_pwq(), the first inactive work item on the pool_workqueue is activated correctly. However, if multiple inactive works exist on the same pool_workqueue, subsequent works fail to activate because wq_node_nr_active.pending_pwqs is empty — the list insertion is skipped when the pool_workqueue is plugged. Fix this by checking for additional inactive works in unplug_oldest_pwq() and updating wq_node_nr_active.pending_pwqs accordingly.
