workqueue: Add a new flag to spot the potential UAF error

Browse source 
Currently if the user queues a new work item unintentionally
into a wq after the destroy_workqueue(wq), the work still can
be queued and scheduled without any noticeable kernel message
before the end of a RCU grace period.

As a debug-aid facility, this commit adds a new flag
__WQ_DESTROYING to spot that issue by triggering a kernel WARN
message.
