So you have an entire pile of these, and I think that's a really good
excuse to
- create a drmm_alloc_workqueue helper for these (and
  drmm_alloc_ordered_workqueue) using the drmm_add_action_or_reset()
  function for automatic drm_device cleanup
- use that instead in all drivers, which means you do not have to make any
  error handling mor complex

Up for that? In that case please also convert any existing alloc*workqueue
callsites in drm, and make this all a patch series (since then there would
be dependencies).

Cheers, Daniel
