workqueue: make workqueue->name[] fixed len
Currently workqueue->name[] is of flexible length. We want to use the flexible field for something more useful and there isn't much benefit in allowing arbitrary name length anyway. Make it fixed len capping at 24 bytes. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com>
