[PATCH v2 14/18] can: m_can: Use the workqueue as queue

From: Markus Schneider-Pargmann
Date: Wed Jan 25 2023 - 14:52:49 EST


The current implementation uses the workqueue for peripheral chips to
submit work. Only a single work item is queued and used at any time.

To be able to keep more than one transmit in flight at a time, prepare
the workqueue to support multiple transmits at the same time.

Each work item now has a separate storage for a skb and a pointer to
cdev. This assures that each workitem can be processed individually.

The workqueue is replaced by an ordered workqueue which makes sure that
only a single worker processes the items queued on the workqueue. Also
items are ordered by the order they were enqueued. This removes most of
the concurrency the workqueue normally offers. It is not necessary for
this driver.

The cleanup functions have to be adopted a bit to handle this new
mechanism.
