system_unbound_wq can't keep up sometimes and we get dropped frames.
Switch to a high priority variant.

I guess we might be talking about adding a WQ_RTPRI next. Doesn't
actually look that difficult to do, if there's a userspace demand (as
we would need to justify why our interactive task deserved to be such
high priority).
