[PATCH 5/9] mailbox: Convert from tasklet to BH workqueue

From: Allen Pais
Date: Wed Mar 27 2024 - 12:06:47 EST


The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is
tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws. To
replace tasklets, BH workqueue support was recently added. A BH workqueue
behaves similarly to regular workqueues except that the queued work items
are executed in the BH context.

This patch converts drivers/infiniband/* from tasklet to BH workqueue.

Based on the work done by Tejun Heo <tj@xxxxxxxxxx>
Branch: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq.git for-6.10
