workqueue: replace POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS flag with worker_pool->manager_arb

Browse Source 
POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS is used to synchronize the manager role.
Synchronizing among workers doesn't need blocking and that's why it's
implemented as a flag.

It got converted to a mutex a while back to add blocking wait from CPU
hotplug path - 6037315269 ("workqueue: use mutex for global_cwq
manager exclusion").  Later it turned out that synchronization among
workers and cpu hotplug need to be done separately.  Eventually,
POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS is restored and workqueue->manager_mutex got
morphed into workqueue->assoc_mutex - 552a37e936 ("workqueue: restore
POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS") and b2eb83d123 ("workqueue: rename
manager_mutex to assoc_mutex").

Now, we're gonna need to be able to lock out managers from
destroy_workqueue() to support multiple unbound pools with custom
attributes making it again necessary to be able to block on the
manager role.  This patch replaces POOL_MANAGING_WORKERS with
worker_pool->manager_arb.

This patch doesn't introduce any behavior changes.

v2: s/manager_mutex/manager_arb/
