Stefan Richter df8ec2490f firewire: fw-sbp2: use an own workqueue (fix system responsiveness) 
Firewire-sbp2 did very uncooperative things in the kernel's shared
workqueue:  Sleeping until reception of management status from the
target for up to 2 seconds, and performing SCSI inquiry and all of the
setup of SCSI command set drivers via scsi_add_device.  If there were
transient or permanent error conditions, this caused long blockage of
the kernel's events process, noticeable e.g. by blocked keyboard input.

We now allocate a workqueue process exclusive to fw-sbp2.  As a side
effect, this also increases parallelism of fw-sbp2's login and reconnect
work versus fw-core's device discovery and device update work which is
performed in the shared workqueue.
