dm: use non reentrant workqueues if equivalent

kmirrord_wq, kcopyd_work and md->wq are created per dm instance and serve only a single work item from the dm instance, so non-reentrant workqueues would provide the same ordering guarantees as ordered ones while allowing CPU affinity and use of the workqueues for other purposes. Switch them to non-reentrant workqueues. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Mike Snitzer <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Alasdair G Kergon <[email protected]>
