    xen: xenbus: Remove create_workqueue · 5ee405d9
    Bhaktipriya Shridhar 提交于
    System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency
    for a long time now and there's no reason to use dedicated workqueues
    just to gain concurrency.  Replace dedicated xenbus_frontend_wq with the
    use of system_wq.
    
    Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue created with create_workqueue(),
    system_wq allows multiple work items to overlap executions even on
    the same CPU; however, a per-cpu workqueue doesn't have any CPU
    locality or global ordering guarantees unless the target CPU is
    explicitly specified and the increase of local concurrency shouldn't
    make any difference.
    
    In this case, there is only a single work item, increase of concurrency
    level by switching to system_wq should not make any difference.
