workqueue: Introduce from_work() helper for cleaner callback declarations
To streamline the transition from tasklets to worqueues, a new helper function, from_work(), is introduced. This helper, inspired by existing from_() patterns, utilizes container_of() and eliminates the redundancy of declaring variable types, leading to more concise and readable code. The modified code snippet demonstrates the enhanced clarity achieved with from_wq(): void callback(struct work_struct *w) { - struct some_data_structure *local = container_of(w, struct some_data_structure, work); + struct some_data_structure *local = from_work(local, w, work); This change aims to facilitate a smoother transition and uphold code quality standards.
