Let alloc*_workqueue() format the workqueue names instead of calling

In patch 1, you have all the changes for removing the use of
create_singlethread_workqueue() in a single patch, touching different drivers.
But the series has 17 more patches to further cleanup the workqueue API use in
various drivers. So why not have the changes in patch 1 split into these
different driver patches with a title like "Cleanup and simplify workqueue API
use" ? That would make reviewing easier I think and avoid having the patch 2-17
changing again code that was changed in patch 1...

Hi Damien,

Thanks for having taken a look at this patch series. Would splitting
patch 01/18 really help? Splitting that patch would make the description
of the split patches longer than the actual code changes. That might
annoy other reviewers. Additionally, isn't typical that Coccinelle
patches are applied tree-wide instead of one driver at a time? A few
examples:
* 795f90c6f13c ("sysctl: treewide: constify argument
                 ctl_table_root::permissions(table)").
* e8058a49e67f ("netlink: introduce type-checking attribute iteration").

Thanks,

Bart.
