For tcp test, it has 4 thread work meanwhile:
tx_bundle_skbs(ar->workqueue),
rx_indication(ar->workqueue_aux),
sdio_async_tx_request(ar_sdio->workqueue),
tx_bundle_complete(ar->workqueue_tx_complete)

It has 4+ cpu/core in system, if reduced to 3 threads, then tcp 
throughput will drop.
only when it only has 1/2/3 cpu/core in system, then reduced to 3 
threads will not drop.
