IB/rdmavt: Handle the kthread worker using the new API Use the new API to create and destroy the cq kthread worker. The API hides some implementation details. In particular, kthread_create_worker() allocates and initializes struct kthread_worker. It runs the kthread the right way and stores task_struct into the worker structure. In addition, the *on_cpu() variant binds the kthread to the given cpu and the related memory node. kthread_destroy_worker() flushes all pending works, stops the kthread and frees the structure. This patch does not change the existing behavior. Note that we must use the on_cpu() variant because the function starts the kthread and it must bind it to the right CPU before waking. The numa node is associated for given CPU as well. Signed-off-by: Petr Mladek <pmladek@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Doug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>
