I don't think we want to update create_workqueue() interface at all. Please
convert them to use alloc_workqueue() instead. Once we convert all
create_workqueue() users then we can just drop the old interface.

The challenge with converging to alloc_workqueue() interface is that the
conversion needs to explicitly decide whether WQ_MEM_RECLAIM is needed or
not but that shouldn't be *too* difficult.

Thanks.
