alloc_workqueue replaces deprecated create_workqueue().
The workqueue adapter->txrx_wq has workitem
&adapter->raise_intr_rxdata_task per adapter. Extended Socket Network
Device is shared memory based, so someone's transmission denotes other's
reception. raise_intr_rxdata_task raises interruption of receivers from
the sender in order to notify receivers. Forward progress under memory
pressure is a requirement here.
The workqueue adapter->control_wq has workitem
&adapter->interrupt_watch_task per adapter. interrupt_watch_task is used
to prevent delay of interrupts. Forward progress under memory pressure
is a requirement here.
Dedicated workqueues have been used in both cases since the workitems
on the workqueues are involved in normal device operation with
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM set to gurantee forward progress under memory pressure.
Since there are only a fixed number of work items, explicit concurrency
limit is unnecessary.
