[PATCH 4/7] cifs: use workqueue instead of slow-work

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Tue Jul 20 2010 - 16:36:16 EST


Workqueue can now handle high concurrency. Use system_nrt_wq
instead of slow-work.

* Updated is_valid_oplock_break() to not call cifs_oplock_break_put()
as advised by Steve French. It might cause deadlock. Instead,
reference is increased after queueing succeeded and
cifs_oplock_break() briefly grabs GlobalSMBSeslock before putting
the cfile to make sure it doesn't put before the matching get is
finished.

* Anton Blanchard reported that cifs conversion was using now gone
system_single_wq. Use system_nrt_wq which provides non-reentrance
guarantee which is enough and much better.
