This workqueue is used by our storage target mode ULPs via the new CQ API. Recent observations when working with very high-end flash storage devices reveal that UNBOUND workqueue threads can migrate between cpu cores and even numa nodes (although some numa locality is accounted for). While this attribute can be useful in some workloads, it does not fit in very nicely with the normal run-to-completion model we usually use in our target-mode ULPs and the block-mq irq<->cpu affinity facilities. The whole block-mq concept is that the completion will land on the same cpu where the submission was performed. The fact that our submitter thread is migrating cpus can break this locality. We assume that as a target mode ULP, we will serve multiple initiators/clients and we can spread the load enough without having to use unbound kworkers. Also, while we're at it, expose this workqueue via sysfs which is harmless and can be useful for debug.
