workqueue: Fix spurious sanity check failures in destroy_workqueue()

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1858489

commit def98c84 upstream.

Before actually destrying a workqueue, destroy_workqueue() checks
whether it's actually idle.  If it isn't, it prints out a bunch of
warning messages and leaves the workqueue dangling.  It unfortunately
has a couple issues.

* Mayday list queueing increments pwq's refcnts which gets detected as
  busy and fails the sanity checks.  However, because mayday list
  queueing is asynchronous, this condition can happen without any
  actual work items left in the workqueue.

* Sanity check failure leaves the sysfs interface behind too which can
  lead to init failure of newer instances of the workqueue.

This patch fixes the above two by

* If a workqueue has a rescuer, disable and kill the rescuer before
  sanity checks.  Disabling and killing is guaranteed to flush the
  existing mayday list.

* Remove sysfs interface before sanity checks.
