[PATCH 2/3] scsi_dh: Remove the workqueue used for activate

[Chandra Seetharaman <sekharan@us.ibm.com>]

Since scsi_dh_activate() has become an asynchronous function,
we do not need a workqueue for submitting scsi_dh_activate().

This patch just removes the workqueue that submits scsi_dh_activate().
