Use the new API to create and destroy the cq kthread worker.
The API hides some implementation details.

In particular, kthread_create_worker() allocates and initializes
struct kthread_worker. It runs the kthread the right way and stores
task_struct into the worker structure. In addition, the *on_cpu()
variant binds the kthread to the given cpu and the related memory
node.

kthread_destroy_worker() flushes all pending works, stops
the kthread and frees the structure.

This patch does not change the existing behavior. Note that we must
use the on_cpu() variant because the function starts the kthread
and it must bind it to the right CPU before waking. The numa node
is associated for given CPU as well.
