After removing kfree(), which was here in the initial implementation,
this function became a thunk which does nothing useful - we can just
stick fn and data directly into work_struct.

Then this becomes:
int execute_in_process_context(void (*fn)(void *data), void *data,
struct work_struct *work)
{
if (!in_interrupt()) {
fn(data);
return 0;
}
INIT_WORK(work, fn, data);
schedule_work(work);
return 1;
}
(and struct execute_work is no longer needed).
