When an EMAD is transmitted, a timeout work item is scheduled with a
delay of 200ms, so that another EMAD will be retried until a maximum of
five retries.

In certain situations, it's possible for the function waiting on the
EMAD to be associated with a work item that is queued on the same
workqueue (`mlxsw_core`) as the timeout work item. This results in
flushing a work item on the same workqueue.

According to commit e159489b ("workqueue: relax lockdep annotation
on flush_work()") the above may lead to a deadlock in case the workqueue
has only one worker active or if the system in under memory pressure and
the rescue worker is in use. The latter explains the very rare and
random nature of the lockdep splats we have been seeing:

Fix this by creating another workqueue for EMAD timeouts, thereby
preventing the situation of a work item trying to flush a work item
queued on the same workqueue.
