Subject: why only one use of "create_freezeable_workqueue"?


  hoping to avoid the madness following my earlier, innocuous question
about the lonely, defconfig'ed module scsi_wait_scan.ko, i'm curious
about why there is, in the entire tree, just one invocation of
"create_freezeable_workqueue":

$ grep -rw create_freezeable_workqueue *
drivers/misc/tifm_core.c:       workqueue = create_freezeable_workqueue("tifm");
include/linux/workqueue.h:#define create_freezeable_workqueue(name) __create_workqueue((name), 1, 1)
$

  not that there's anything wrong with that, but i'm just curious as
to why there's only one application of that feature in the whole tree.
