      ivtv: use kthread_worker instead of workqueue · 7bc46560
      Tejun Heo authored
      Upcoming workqueue updates will no longer guarantee fixed workqueue to
      worker kthread association, so giving RT priority to the irq worker
      won't work.  Use kthread_worker which guarantees specific kthread
      association instead.  This also makes setting the priority cleaner.

      kthread: implement kthread_worker · b56c0d89
      Tejun Heo authored
      Implement simple work processor for kthread.  This is to ease using
      kthread.  Single thread workqueue used to be used for things like this
      but workqueue won't guarantee fixed kthread association anymore to
      enable worker sharing.
      
      This can be used in cases where specific kthread association is
      necessary, for example, when it should have RT priority or be assigned
      to certain cgroup.
