rt2x00: Use ieee80211_hw->workqueue again
Remove the rt2x00 singlethreaded workqueue and move the link tuner and packet filter scheduled work to the ieee80211_hw->workqueue again. The only exception is the interface scheduled work handler which uses the mac80211 interface iterator under the RTNL lock. This work needs to be handled on the kernel workqueue to prevent lockdep issues. Signed-off-by: Ivo van Doorn <IvDoorn@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
