[PATCH] knfsd: nfsd4: create separate laundromat workqueue
We're running the laundromat work on the default kevent worker thread. But the laundromat takes the nfsv4 state semaphore, which is used for way too much stuff, and the potential for deadlocks is high. Better to have this on a separate workqueue. Signed-off-by: J.
