KVM: Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue
The workqueue "irqfd_cleanup_wq" queues a single work item &irqfd->shutdown and hence doesn't require ordering. It is a host-wide workqueue for issuing deferred shutdown requests aggregated from all vm* instances. It is not being used on a memory reclaim path. Hence, it has been converted to use system_wq. The work item has been flushed in kvm_irqfd_release(). The workqueue "wqueue" queues a single work item &timer->expired and hence doesn't require ordering. Also, it is not being used on a memory reclaim path. Hence, it has been converted to use system_wq. System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency for a long time now and hence it's not required to have a singlethreaded workqueue just to gain concurrency. Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue created with create_singlethread_workqueue(), system_wq allows multiple work items to overlap executions even on the same CPU; however, a per-cpu workqueue doesn't have any CPU locality or global ordering guarantee unless the target CPU is explicitly specified and thus the increase of local concurrency shouldn't make any difference.
