workqueue: void unneeded requeuing the pwq in rescuer thread

008847f66c ("workqueue: allow rescuer thread to do more work.") made
the rescuer worker requeue the pwq immediately if there may be more
work items which need rescuing instead of waiting for the next mayday
timer expiration.  Unfortunately, it checks only whether the pool needs
help from rescuers, but it doesn't check whether the pwq has work items
in the pool (the real reason that this rescuer can help for the pool).

The patch adds the check and void unneeded requeuing.
