6.5-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx> commit 91d20ab9d9ca035527af503d00e1e30d6c375f2a upstream. Since wiphy work items can run pretty much arbitrary code in the stack/driver, it can take longer to run all of this, so we shouldn't be using system_wq via schedule_work(). Also, we lock the wiphy (which is the reason this exists), so use system_unbound_wq.
