[kernel/workqueue.c] Unnecessary WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE in the worker_pool_assign_id(), idr_alloc().

[JaeJoon Jung]

When determining worker_pool->id using idr_alloc() in the
worker_pool_assign_id() function,
I think You need not to pass WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE to the idr_alloc() function.
This is because the idr_alloc() function checks the maximum value of
id as INT_MAX.
WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE is equivalent to INT_MAX.
So, I think Any code related to WORK_OFFQ_POOL_NONE is not needed.
