Subject: [PATCH 28/32] xfs: convert to alloc_workqueue()

Convert from create[_singlethread]_workqueue() to alloc_workqueue().

* xfsdatad_workqueue and xfsconvertd_workqueue are identity converted.
  Using higher concurrency limit might be useful but given the
  complexity of workqueue usage in xfs, proceeding cautiously seems
  better.

* xfs_mru_reap_wq is converted to non-ordered workqueue with max
  concurrency of 1 as the work items don't require any specific
  ordering and already have proper synchronization.  It seems it was
  singlethreaded to save worker threads, which is no longer a concern.

Only compile tested.  Please feel free to take it into the subsystem
tree or simply ack - I'll route it through the wq tree.

Thanks.
