Subject: a left over octep_vf_wq

Hi Shinas et al,
  I noticed the unused work queue:

drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/octeon_ep_vf/octep_vf_main.c:21
   struct workqueue_struct *octep_vf_wq;

It comes from last years:
cb7dd712189f ("octeon_ep_vf: Add driver framework and device initialization")

I see some discussion on the list which looks like you came to the
conclusion not to use that queue, but it looks like it didn't want to leave.

Dave
