[PATCH 6.8 002/715] workqueue.c: Increase workqueue name length

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Sun Mar 24 2024 - 18:36:11 EST


From: Audra Mitchell <audra@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 31c89007285d365aa36f71d8fb0701581c770a27 ]

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.
