[PATCH v2 6/7] net: thunderx: add workqueue control structures for handle ndo_set_rx_mode request

From: Vadim Lomovtsev <hidden>
Date: 2018-03-30 12:00:40
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, lkml
Subsystem: arm/cavium thunder network driver, networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Sunil Goutham, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Vadim Lomovtsev <redacted>

The kernel calls ndo_set_rx_mode() callback from atomic context which
causes messaging timeouts between VF and PF (as they’re implemented via
MSIx). So in order to handle ndo_set_rx_mode() we need to get rid of it.

This commit implements necessary workqueue related structures to let VF
queue kernel request processing in non-atomic context later.
