The reset process for ibmvnic commonly takes multiple seconds, clearly making it inappropriate for schedule_work/system_wq. The reason to make this change is that ibmvnic's use of the default system-wide workqueue for a relatively long-running work item can negatively affect other workqueue users. So, queue the relatively slow reset job to the system_long_wq.
