net:cxgb3: replace tasklets with works
OFLD and CTRL TX queues can be stopped if there is no room in
their DMA rings. If this happens, they're tried to be restarted
later after having made some room in the corresponding ring.
The tasks of restarting these queues were triggered using
tasklets, but they can be replaced for workqueue works, getting
them out of softirq context.
This queues stop/restart probably doesn't happen often and they
can be quite lengthy because they try to send all pending skbs.
Moreover, given that probably the ring is not empty yet, so the
DMA still has work to do, we don't need to be so fast to justify
using tasklets/softirq instead of running in a thread.
