rtl_wq is allocated at rtl_init_core, so it makes more sense to destroy it
at rtl_deinit_core. In the case of USB, where _rtl_usb_init does not
require anything to be undone, that is fine. But for PCI, rtl_pci_init,
which is called after rtl_init_core, needs to deallocate data, but only if
it has been called.
That means that destroying the workqueue needs to be done whether
rtl_pci_init has been called or not. And since rtl_pci_deinit was doing it,
it has to be moved out of there.
It makes more sense to move it to rtl_deinit_core and have it done in both
cases, USB and PCI.
Since this is a requirement for a followup memory leak fix, mark this as
fixing such memory leak.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
