mm: replace use of system_wq with system_percpu_wq

This patch continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which has
begun with the changes introducing new workqueues and a new
alloc_workqueue flag:

   commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
   commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")

The point of the refactoring is to eventually alter the default behavior
of workqueues to become unbound by default so that their workload
placement is optimized by the scheduler.

Before that to happen, workqueue users must be converted to the better
named new workqueues with no intended behaviour changes:

   system_wq -> system_percpu_wq
   system_unbound_wq -> system_dfl_wq

This way the old obsolete workqueues (system_wq, system_unbound_wq) can be
removed in the future.
