Davidlohr Bueso 9442e81d7e staging/wlan-ng, prism2usb: replace completion_bh tasklet with work
Tasklets have long been deprecated as being too heavy on the system
by running in irq context - and this is not a performance critical
path. If a higher priority process wants to run, it must wait for
the tasklet to finish before doing so.

The completion_bh tasklet will now run in process context and have
further concurrency (tasklets being serialized among themselves),
but this is done holding the ctlxq.lock, so it should be fine.

TODO:
	- checkpatch.pl cleanups
	- sparse warnings
	- move to use the in-kernel wireless stack

Please send any patches or complaints about this driver to Greg
Kroah-Hartman <greg@kroah.com> and don't bother the upstream wireless
kernel developers about it, they want nothing to do with it.
