Subject: [PATCH] mtip32xx: Remove deprecated create_workqueue

alloc_workqueue replaces deprecated create_workqueue().

A dedicated workqueue has been used since the workqueue isr_workq is
involved in irq handling path of block driver and requires forward
progress under memory pressure. Hence, WQ_MEM_RECLAIM has been set.
Since there are only a fixed number of work items, explicit concurrency
limit is unnecessary here.

flush_workqueue is unnecessary since destroy_workqueue() itself calls
drain_workqueue() which flushes repeatedly till the workqueue
becomes empty. Hence the calls to flush_workqueue()  before
destroy_workqueue() have been dropped.
