[PATCH v2] workqueue.c: Increase workqueue name length

From: Audra Mitchell
Date: Wed Jan 10 2024 - 15:30:24 EST


Currently we limit the size of the workqueue name to 24 characters due to
commit ecf6881ff349 ("workqueue: make workqueue->name[] fixed len")
Increase the size to 32 characters and print a warning in the event
the requested name is larger than the limit of 32 characters.
