Yes I updated the work queue setup and ported it to
all these changes in 2.6.36.

See the changelog in the description.

I did it intentionally not split up because a split up is unlikely
to be bisectable. I think there is no need for any splitups.

What review? The code has been ready since last merge window at least
and was revied back then is my understanding.

The various versions I posted have been extensively tested
by lots of people, including me.
