    ACPI / thermal: Remove create_workqueue() · e053dc90

    alloc_workqueue replaces deprecated create_workqueue().
    
    A dedicated workqueue has been used since the workqueue
    acpi_thermal_pm_queue with workitem &tz->thermal_check_work
    (maps to acpi_thermal_check_fn), is involved in thermal zone polling.
    Wallclock time is actually important and getting delayed in handling
    critical temperature event can actually lead to unnecessary hardware
    damage. So while this is not used during memory reclaim, we still want
    forward progress guarantee and be generally snappy in servicing it.
    Hence, WQ_MEM_RECLAIM and WQ_HIGHPRI have been used here.
    
    Since there are only a fixed number of work items, explicit concurrency
    limit is unnecessary here.
