net/mlx4_en: Add a service task
Add a service task to run tasks that needed to be executed periodically. Currently the only task is a watchdog to catch NIC clock overflow, to make timestamping accurate. Will move the statistics task into this framework in a later patch. Signed-off-by: Amir Vadai <amirv@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
