[PATCH] xen: xen-pciback: Remove create_workqueue

From: Bhaktipriya Shridhar
Date: Fri May 27 2016 - 11:54:20 EST


With concurrency managed workqueues, use of dedicated workqueues can be
replaced by using system_wq. Drop host->intr_wq by using
system_wq.

Since there is only a single work item, increase of concurrency level by
switching to system_wq should not break anything.

cancel_work_sync() has been used in xen_pcibk_disconnect() to ensure that
work item is not pending or executing by the time exit path runs.
