I don't have perspective on how serious that effort is. But ~2 years ago DM introduced another consumer of tasklets in dm-crypt, see: 39d42fa96ba1 dm crypt: add flags to optionally bypass kcryptd workqueues
Given that, and other numerous users, is the effort to remove tasklets valid? What is the alternative to tasklets?
