mlxsw: core: Create an ordered workqueue for FIB offload
We're going to start processing FIB entries addition / deletion events in deferred work. These work items must be processed in the order they were submitted or otherwise we can have differences between the kernel's FIB table and the device's. Solve this by creating an ordered workqueue to which these work items will be submitted to. Note that we can't simply convert the current workqueue to be ordered, as EMADs re-transmissions are also processed in deferred work. Later on, we can migrate other work items to this workqueue, such as FDB notification processing and nexthop resolution, since they all take the same lock anyway.
