Subject: [PATCH 17/20 v1] [SCSI] mpt3sas: Use alloc_ordered_workqueue() API instead of create_singlethread_workqueue() API
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2015 11:07:07 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1434433027-40682-1-git-send-email-Sreekanth.Reddy@avagotech.com> (raw)

Created a thread using alloc_ordered_workqueue() API in order to process
the works from firmware Work-queue sequentially instead of
create_singlethread_workqueue() API.

Changes in v1:
    No need to check for backport compatibility in the upstream kernel.
so removing the else section where driver use 
create_singlethread_workqueue() API if alloc_ordered_workqueue() API is
not defined, This else section is not required since in the latest upstream
kernel this alloc_ordered_workqueue() API is always defined.
