We ensure these semantics:
worker->pool is set to pool if the worker is associated to the pool.
(normal worker is associated to its pool when created,
rescuer is associated to a pool dynamically.)
worker->pool is set to NULL if the worker is de-associated to the pool.
It is done with pool->lock held in ether set of above
Thus we have this semantic:
If pool->lock is held and worker->pool==pool, we can determine that
the worker is associated to the pool now.
