Merge branch 'ethernet-convert-from-tasklet-to-bh-workqueue'

Allen Pais says:

====================
ethernet: Convert from tasklet to BH workqueue [part]

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.
