System workqueues have been able to handle high level of concurrency for a long time now and there's no reason to use dedicated workqueues just to gain concurrency. Since aica_queue for AICA sound driver has workitem dreamcastcard->spu_dma_work (maps to run_spu_dma) which is involved in aica dma transfers and is not being used on a memory reclaim path, dedicated aica_queue has been replaced with the use of system_wq. Unlike a dedicated per-cpu workqueue created with create_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 guarantees unless the target CPU is explicitly specified and thus the increase of local concurrency shouldn't make any difference. Since the work items could be pending, flush_work() has been used in snd_aicapcm_pcm_close() to ensure that there is no pending task while disconnecting the driver.
