treewide: Introduce kthread_run_worker[_on_cpu]()
kthread_create() creates a kthread without running it yet. kthread_run()
creates a kthread and runs it.
On the other hand, kthread_create_worker() creates a kthread worker and
runs it.
This difference in behaviours is confusing. Also there is no way to
create a kthread worker and affine it using kthread_bind_mask() or
kthread_affine_preferred() before starting it.
Consolidate the behaviours and introduce kthread_run_worker[_on_cpu]()
that behaves just like kthread_run(). kthread_create_worker[_on_cpu]()
will now only create a kthread worker without starting it.
