The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is
tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws. To
replace tasklets, BH workqueue support was recently added. A BH workqueue
behaves similarly to regular workqueues except that the queued work items
are executed in the BH context.

This patch converts a few drivers in drivers/ethernet/* from tasklet
to BH workqueue. The next set will be sent out after the next -rc is
out.

This series is based on 
commit a6ec08beec9e ("Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net")

First version converting all the drivers can be found at:
