workqueue: dump the last woken worker for stalled pools

To identify the task most likely responsible for a stall, add
last_woken_worker (L: pool->lock) to worker_pool and record it in
kick_pool() just before wake_up_process().  This captures the idle
worker that was kicked to take over when the last running worker went to
sleep; if the pool is now stuck with no running worker, that task is the
prime suspect and its backtrace is dumped by show_pool_no_running_worker().

Using struct worker * rather than struct task_struct * avoids any
lifetime concern: workers are only destroyed via set_worker_dying()
which requires pool->lock, and set_worker_dying() clears
last_woken_worker when the dying worker matches.
show_cpu_pool_busy_workers() holds pool->lock while calling
sched_show_task(), so last_woken_worker is either NULL or points to a
live worker with a valid task.  More precisely, set_worker_dying() clears
last_woken_worker before setting WORKER_DIE, so a non-NULL
last_woken_worker means the kthread has not yet exited and worker->task
is still alive.
