Jacob Keller 4d5957cbde i40e: remove WQ_UNBOUND and the task limit of our workqueue
During certain events such as a CORER, multiple devices will run a work
task to handle some cleanup. This can cause issues due to
a single-threaded workqueue which can mean that a device doesn't cleanup
in time. Prevent this by removing the single-threaded restriction on the
module workqueue. This avoids the need to add more complex yielding
logic in our service task routine. This is also similar to what other
drivers such as fm10k do.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
