spi: core: avoid waking pump thread from spi_sync instead run teardown delayed
When spi_sync is running alone with no other spi devices connected
to the bus the worker thread is woken during spi_finalize_current_message
to run the teardown code every time.
This is totally unnecessary in the case that there is no message queued.
On a multi-core system this results in one wakeup of the thread for each
spi_message processed via spi_sync where in most cases the teardown does
not happen as the hw is already in use.
This patch now delays the teardown by 1 second by using a separate
kthread_delayed_work for the teardown.
This avoids waking the kthread too often.
For spi_sync transfers in a tight loop (say 40k messages/s) this
avoids the penalty of waking the worker thread 40k times/s.
On a rasperry pi 3 with 4 cores the results in 32% of a single core
only to find out that there is nothing in the queue and it can go back
to sleep.
With this patch applied the spi-worker is woken exactly once: after
the load finishes and the spi bus is idle for 1 second.
I believe I have also seen situations where during a spi_sync loop
the worker thread (triggered by the last message finished) is slightly
faster and _wins_ the race to process the message, so we are actually
running the kthread and letting it do some work...
This is also no longer observed with this patch applied as.
Tested with a new CAN controller driver for the mcp2517fd which
uses spi_sync for interrupt handling and spi_async for scheduling
of can frames for transmission (in a different thread)
Some statistics when receiving 100000 CAN frames with the mcp25xxfd driver
on a Raspberry pi 3:

Err: 0
top shows 91% for the mcp25xxfd interrupt handler, 0% for spi0
So we see that spi0 is no longer getting scheduled wasting CPU cycles
There are a lot less context switches and corresponding Rescheduling interrupts
All of these show that this improves efficiency of the system and reduces
CPU utilization.
