[PATCH] xen: xenbus: Remove create_workqueue

From: Bhaktipriya Shridhar
Date: Fri May 27 2016 - 14:50:15 EST


With concurrency managed workqueues, use of dedicated workqueues can be
replaced by using system_wq. Drop xenbus_frontend_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.

Since the work item could be pending and the code expects it to run
once scheduled, flush_work() has been used in xenbus_dev_suspend()
