If we want the split like this.

It might be better to:

1) implement a simple irq injection on the ioctl context in patch 8
2) add the dedicated workqueue injection in this patch

Since my understanding is that

1) the function looks more isolated for readers
2) the difference between sysctl vs workqueue should be more obvious 
than system wq vs dedicated wq
3) a chance to describe why workqueue is needed in the commit log in 
this patch

Thanks
