workqueue: introduce WORK_OFFQ_CPU_NONE

Currently, when a work item is off queue, high bits of its data
encodes the last CPU it was on.  This is scheduled to be changed to
pool ID, which will make it impossible to use WORK_CPU_NONE to
indicate no association.

This patch limits the number of bits which are used for off-queue cpu
number to 31 (so that the max fits in an int) and uses the highest
possible value - WORK_OFFQ_CPU_NONE - to indicate no association.
