workqueue: skip the node_nr_active update for non-unbound workqueuesgrafted
apply_wqattrs_commit() updates node_nr_active->max unconditionally.
wq->node_nr_active[] is only allocated for unbound workqueues, so guard
the call before per-cpu workqueues start using this path.
No functional change: only unbound workqueues reach apply_wqattrs_*()
today.

The file is also made read-only. + + This serves as an integrity check, but the availability of the + Merkle tree root hash also allows efficiently supporting + various use cases where normally the whole file would need to + be hashed at once, such as: (a) auditing (logging the file's + hash), or (b) authenticity verification (comparing the hash + against a known good value, e.g. from a digital signature). + + fs-verity is especially useful on large files where not all + the contents may actually be needed.
