SLOW_WORK: Make slow_work_ops ->get_ref/->put_ref optional
Make the ability for the slow-work facility to take references on a work item optional as not everyone requires this. Even the internal slow-work stubs them out, so those can be got rid of too. Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <jens.axboe@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>
