In preparation for unconditionally passing the
struct tasklet_struct pointer to all tasklet
callbacks, switch to using the new tasklet_setup()
and from_tasklet() to pass the tasklet pointer explicitly.

Who came up with the idea to add a macro 'from_tasklet' that is just
container_of? container_of in the code would be _much_ more readable,
and not leave anyone guessing wtf from_tasklet is doing.

I'd fix that up now before everything else goes in...

As I mentioned in the other thread, I think this makes things much more
readable. It's the same thing that the timer_struct conversion did
(added a container_of wrapper) to avoid the ever-repeating use of
typeof(), long lines, etc.
