mlxsw: core: Remove deprecated create_workqueue
alloc_workqueue replaces deprecated create_workqueue(). A dedicated workqueue has been used since the workqueue mlxsw_wq is used for FDB notif. processing with workitems that are involved in normal device operation && because it's a network device which can be depended upon during memory reclaim. Workitems &trans->timeout_dw and &mlxsw_sp->fdb_notify.dw, map to mlxsw_sp_fdb_notify_work (processes FDB notifications from the underlying device and resolves the netdev to which the entry points to and notifies the bridge using the switchdev notifier) and mlxsw_emad_trans_timeout_work (provides async EMAD register access) respectively. They require forward progress under memory pressure and hence, WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set. Since there are only a fixed number of work items, explicit concurrency limit is unnecessary here.
