[PATCH v2] wifi: qtnfmac: add WQ_PERCPU to alloc_workqueue users

From: Marco Crivellari

Date: Fri Jan 09 2026 - 11:53:28 EST


This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with
the introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in:

commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq")
commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag")

The refactoring is going to alter the default behavior of
alloc_workqueue() to be unbound by default.

With the introduction of the WQ_PERCPU flag (equivalent to !WQ_UNBOUND),
any alloc_workqueue() caller that doesn’t explicitly specify WQ_UNBOUND
must now use WQ_PERCPU. For more details see the Link tag below.

In order to keep alloc_workqueue() behavior identical, explicitly request
WQ_PERCPU.
