Yes, thanks!

So far, I've not encountered situations where my patch shows worse
performance.  In most cases, queue_work is called only from one
thread, so serializing at queue_work is unlikely to be a problem.
Another contention is between queue_work and worker_routine, but
worker threads spend the most of time doing disk I/Os and it also
couldn't be a problem on my environment.

Thanks,
