Subject: [PATCH 1/9] drivers/net: remove unnecessary flush_scheduled_work() calls

From: Tejun Heo <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 12 Dec 2010 16:52:57 +0100

janz-ican3, sh_eth, skge and vxge don't use workqueue at all and there
is no reason to flush the system_wq.  Drop flush_scheduled_work()
calls and references to workqueue.
