3.16.47-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Amitoj Kaur Chawla <amitoj1...@gmail.com> commit c272dc2da14cde0bfd9495a5aafb8e3e94f35601 upstream. With concurrency managed workqueues, use of dedicated workqueues can be replaced by using system_wq. Drop mux_rx_wq by using system_wq. Since there is only one work item per mux_dev and different mux_devs do not need to be ordered, increase of concurrency level by switching to system_wq should not break anything. cancel_work_sync() is used to ensure that work is not pending or executing on any CPU. Lastly, since all devices are suspended, which shutdowns the work item before the driver can be unregistered, it is guaranteed that no work item is pending or executing by the time exit path runs.
