Subject: [PATCH v2] usb: gadget: ffs: handle I/O completion in-order

By submitting completed transfers to the system workqueue there is no
guarantee that completion events will be queued up in the correct order,
as in multi-processor systems there is a thread running for each
processor and the work items are not bound to a particular core.

This means that several completions are in the queue at the same time,
they may be processed in parallel and complete out of order, resulting
in data appearing corrupt when read by userspace.

Create a single-threaded workqueue for FunctionFS so that data completed
requests is passed to userspace in the order in which they complete.

I originally sent a version of this patch back in July [1] without any
response.  Since then, I've improved the commit message and switched
from create_singlethread_workqueue() to alloc_ordered_workqueue(), so
I've marked this as v2.
