qla3xxx: bugfix: Move link state machine into a worker thread
The link state machine requires access to some resources that are shared with the iSCSI function on the chip. (See iSCSI driver at drivers/scsi/qla4xxx) If the interface is being up/downed at a rapid pace this driver may need to sleep waiting to get access to the common resources. For this we are moving the state machine to run as a work thread. Signed-off-by: Ron Mercer <ron.mercer@qlogic.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>
