These are deprecated interfaces which used to be necessary because
they functioned differently.  Keeping them around is mostly a courtesy
to out-of-tree developers as workqueue tends to be used by a lot of
them too.  The patch description is rather misleading, system_nrt_*wq
should be removed together, and I kinda wanna keep them for one more
cycle, so no cookie for this one either.

Thanks.
