[PATCH net-next v5 4/6] net: thunderbolt: Move long delayed work on system_dfl_long_wq

[Marco Crivellari <marco.crivellari@suse.com>]

Currently the code enqueues the login_work delayed work using
queue_delayed_work(), on system_long_wq. This workqueue should be used
when long works are expected and it is a per-cpu workqueue.

queue_delayed_work() ends up calling __queue_delayed_work(), which, for
a non-zero delay, sets a global timer that could fire anywhere, enqueuing
the work where the timer fired. With a zero delay, as in
tbnet_handle_packet(), no timer is armed and the work is enqueued
directly on the local CPU, i.e. the CPU that handled the TBIP_LOGIN
packet.

Unbound works could benefit from scheduler task placement, to optimize
performance and power consumption. Long work shouldn't stick to a single
CPU.

Recently, a new unbound workqueue specific for long running work has
been added:

    c116737e972e ("workqueue: Add system_dfl_long_wq for long unbound works")

Since login_work doesn't rely on per-cpu variables, there is no obvious
reason that justify the use of a per-cpu workqueue. So change
system_long_wq with system_dfl_long_wq for login_work, so that the work
may benefit from scheduler task placement.
