Subject: [PATCH] staging: octeon: Use alloc_ordered_workqueue
Message-ID: <20160219075654.GA12205@Karyakshetra>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Disposition: inline
User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.23 (2014-03-12)

Replaced create_singlethread_workqueue() with alloc_ordered_workqueue() with
WQ_MEM_RECLAIM set, so it creates a workqueue which executes work items
one at a time in the queueing order and is guaranteed to make forward
progress under memory pressure.
