Subject: [PATCH v3 3/6] gpiolib: add a per-gpio_device line state
 notification workqueue

From: Bartosz Golaszewski <bartosz.golaszewski@...aro.org>

In order to prepare the line state notification mechanism for working in
atomic context as well, add a dedicated, high-priority, ordered
workqueue to GPIO device which will be used to queue the events fron any
context for them to be emitted always in process context.
