If @delay is zero and the dealyed_work is idle, queue_delayed_work() queues it for immediate execution; however, queue_delayed_work_on() lacks this logic and always goes through timer regardless of @delay.
This patch moves 0 @delay handling logic from queue_delayed_work() to queue_delayed_work_on() so that both functions behave the same.
