[PATCH] iwlwifi: dvm: convert create_singlethread_workqueue() to alloc_workqueue()

[Eva Rachel Retuya <eraretuya@gmail.com>]

Use alloc_workqueue() to allocate the workqueue instead of
create_singlethread_workqueue() since the latter is deprecated and is scheduled
for removal.

There are work items doing related operations that shouldn't be swapped when
queued in a certain order hence preserve the strict execution ordering of a
single threaded (ST) workqueue by setting max_active to 1 and adding the
WQ_UNBOUND flag.

In addition, there are work items dealing with temperature throttling (tt_work,
ct_enter, ct_exit). Adding the WQ_HIGHPRI flag would place the work items in a
high priority workqueue.

Lastly, guarantee forward progress for work items depended upon during memory
reclaim by the addition of the WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag.

To the maintainers:
Just to confirm, are work items depended upon during memory reclaim? If not, the WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag will be dropped. I added it just in case since create_singlethread_workqueue() also sets this flag.
