If device driver now has dependency on RCU you need to update meson.build
to show that. No other driver does this. Creating threads in driver is
discouraged because it can lead to other problems in applications.
If possible, I would figure out how to manage reset without creating a thread
per-queue. Or at least one control thread and use epoll() and eventfd's.
