There already /is/ a pwork_threads sysctl knob for controlling
quotacheck parallelism; and for the block gc workqueue I add WQ_SYSFS so
that you can set /sys/bus/workqueue/devices/xfs-*/max_active.

Hmm.  A single know that is named to describe that it deals with the
expected device parallelism might be easier to understand for users.

Where should I add a sysfs attributes for per-fs configuration knobs?  I
don't really want to add "expected parallelism" to /sys/fs/xfs/*/error
because that seems like the wrong place, and /proc/sys/fs/xfs/ is too
global for something that could depend on the device.
