Mikulas Patocka 5268de78e1 dm-crypt: add the optional "high_priority" flag ... When WQ_HIGHPRI was used for the dm-crypt kcryptd workqueue it was reported that dm-crypt performs badly when the system is loaded[1]. Because of reports of audio skipping, dm-crypt stopped using WQ_HIGHPRI with commit f612b2132d (Revert "dm crypt: use WQ_HIGHPRI for the IO and crypt workqueues"). But it has since been determined that WQ_HIGHPRI provides improved performance (with reduced latency) for highend systems with much more resources than those laptop/desktop users which suffered from the use of WQ_HIGHPRI. As such, add an option "high_priority" that allows the use of WQ_HIGHPRI for dm-crypt's workqueues and also sets the write_thread to nice level MIN_NICE (-20). This commit makes it optional, so that normal users won't be harmed by it.
