The driver creates its own per-CPU threads which are updated based on CPU
hotplug events. It is also possible to use kworkers and remove some of the
infrastructure get the same job done while saving a few lines of code.
bnx2fc_percpu_io_thread() becomes bnx2fc_percpu_io_work() which is
mostly the same code. The outer loop (kthread_should_stop()) gets
removed and the remaining code is shifted to the left.
In bnx2fc_process_new_cqes() the code checked for ->iothread to
decide if there is an active per-CPU thread. With the kworkers this
is no longer possible nor required. The allocation of a new work item
(via bnx2fc_alloc_work()) does no longer happen with the ->fp_work_lock
lock held. It performs only a memory allocation + initialization which
does not require any kind of serialization. The lock is held while
adding the new member to fps->work_list list.
The remaining part is the removal CPU hotplug notifier since it is taken
care by the kworker code.
This patch was only compile-tested due to -ENODEV.
