dm delay: fix a possible deadlock due to shared workqueue
The dm-delay target uses a shared workqueue for multiple instances. This can cause deadlock if two or more dm-delay targets are stacked on the top of each other. This patch changes dm-delay to use a per-instance workqueue. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 2.6.22+ Signed-off-by: Mikulas Patocka <mpatocka@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <snitzer@redhat.com>
