Message-ID: <20110120074215.GB30522@core.coreip.homeip.net>

Subject: [RFC] Input: input-polldev - create workqueue upfront
Input: input-polldev - create workqueue upfront
From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@...il.com>
With introduction of concurrency-managed work queues there is no point
in creating workqueues on demand; they can be created upfront as it does
not cause creation of unused threads.
Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@...l.ru>

I wonder if it would be even simpler if we had a freezable system-wide
workqueue, in addition to system_wq, system_long_wq, system_nrt_wq and
system_unbound_wq...
