Since we run the watchdog periodically, which might take a while and potentially monopolize the system default workqueue, create our own separate work queue. This also helps reduce and stabilize latency between scheduling the work in our interrupt and actually performing the work. Still use a timer for the regular scheduled interval but queue the work onto its own work queue. It seemed overkill to create a single workqueue per interface, so we just spawn a single work queue for all interfaces upon driver load. For this reason, use a multi-threaded workqueue with one thread per processor, rather than single threaded queue.
