Jens Axboe 87959fa16c Revert "block: reduce kblockd_mod_delayed_work_on() CPU consumption"
This reverts commit cb2ac2912a.

Alex and the kernel test robot report that this causes a significant
performance regression with BFQ. I can reproduce that result, so let's
revert this one as we're close to -rc6 and we there's no point in trying
to rush a fix.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
