netfilter: conntrack: Change to deferable work queue
Delayed workqueue causes wakeups to idle CPUs. This was causing a power impact for devices. Use deferable work queue instead so that gc_worker runs when CPU is active only. Signed-off-by: Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan <subashab@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
