b128a30409 padata: allocate workqueue internally
Move workqueue allocation inside of padata to prepare for further
changes to how padata uses workqueues.

Guarantees the workqueue is created with max_active=1, which padata
relies on to work correctly.  No functional change.

7576b2b98d padata.txt: standardize document format
Each text file under Documentation follows a different
format. Some doesn't even have titles!

Change its representation to follow the adopted standard,
using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx:

- mark document title;
- mark literal blocks.
