Hi Allen,

Subsytem is dmaengine, can you rename this to dmaengine: ...

Thanks for conversion, am happy with BH alternative as it helps in
dmaengine where we need shortest possible time between tasklet and
interrupt handling to maximize dma performance

Can we name these as bh_work to signify that we are always in bh

This is good conversion, thanks for ensuring system_bh_highpri_wq is
used here
