[RFC/RFT PATCH 1/4] net: ethernet: ti: cpts: use own highpri workqueue

[Grygorii Strashko]

There could be significant delay in CPTS work schedule under high system
load and on -RT which could cause CPTS misbehavior due to internal counter
overflow. Usage of own highpri ordered workqueue allows to avoid such kind
of issues and makes it possible to tune priority of CPTS workqueue thread
on -RT.
