workqueue: Rename rescuer kworker
Each CPU-specific and unbound kworker kthread conforms to a particular naming scheme. However, this does not extend to the rescuer kworker. At present, a rescuer kworker is simply named according to its workqueue's name. This can be cryptic. This patch modifies a rescuer to follow the kworker naming scheme. The "R" is indicative of a rescuer and after "-" is its workqueue's name e.g. "kworker/R-ext4-rsv-conver". tj: Use "R" instead of "r" as the prefix to make it more distinctive and consistent with how highpri pools are marked.

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.
