Do not run adpatch with only one worker

When running adpatch, when asked for number of workers, do not enter 1. Sometimes an error needed for adpatch is included on the same patch. So if error occured, the job will be deferred if there are more than one worker. After that another worker will continue to work and the error fixed. When adpatch retry the failed job, it will be fixed.
If only one worker assigned, when error occurred, adpatch will stop, no job is deferred, so the error must be fixed outside adpatch.
