[PATCH v2 02/14] net: axienet: Convert DMA error handler to a work queue

From: Andre Przywara
Date: Mon Mar 09 2020 - 14:19:11 EST


The DMA error handler routine is currently a tasklet, scheduled to run
after the DMA error IRQ was handled.
However it needs to take the MDIO mutex, which is not allowed to do in a
tasklet. A kernel (with debug options) complains consequently:

[ 615.748343] xilinx_axienet 7fe00000.ethernet eth0: Link is Up - 1Gbps/Full - flow control off

Since tasklets are not really popular anymore anyway, lets convert this
over to a work queue, which can sleep and thus can take the MDIO mutex.
