Under synflood conditions binding these handlers to system_long_wq may
pin them to a saturated CPU.
We've observed improved throughtput on a DPDK/VPP application with this
change, which we attribute to the reduced context switching.
Neither handler has per-CPU data dependencies nor cache locality
requirements that would prevent this change.
