Bhaktipriya Shridhar 7166829215 fbdev: Remove deprecated create_singlethread_workqueue
The workqueue "esd_wq" has only a single workitem(&md->esd_work)
and hence doesn't require ordering. Also, it is not being used on a
memory reclaim path. Hence, the singlethreaded workqueue has been
replaced with the use of system_wq.

System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency
for a long time now and hence it's not required to have a singlethreaded
workqueue just to gain concurrency. Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue
created with create_singlethread_workqueue(), system_wq allows multiple
work items to overlap executions even on the same CPU; however, a
per-cpu workqueue doesn't have any CPU locality or global ordering
guarantee unless the target CPU is explicitly specified and thus the
increase of local concurrency shouldn't make any difference.

mipid_esd_stop_check () calls cancel_delayed_work() in mipid_cleanup()
to ensure that there are no pending tasks while disconnecting the driver.

Andrew F. Davis 3821a065f5 spi: Drop owner assignment from spi_drivers
An spi_driver does not need to set an owner, it will be populated by the
driver core.

Tomi Valkeinen f7018c2135 video: move fbdev to drivers/video/fbdev
The drivers/video directory is a mess. It contains generic video related
files, directories for backlight, console, linux logo, lots of fbdev
device drivers, fbdev framework files.

Make some order into the chaos by creating drivers/video/fbdev
directory, and move all fbdev related files there.

No functionality is changed, although I guess it is possible that some
subtle Makefile build order related issue could be created by this
patch.
