Subject: [PATCH net-next] ehea: Remove sleep at .ndo_get_stats

Currently ehea ndo_get_stats can sleep in two places, in a hcall
and in a GFP_KERNEL alloc, which is not correct.
This patch creates a workqueue that grabs the information from time
to time from the hardware, and place it into the device structure,
so that, .ndo_get_stats quickly returns the device structure statistics
block.
