... and looking at the code again, I don't think the stop_sync ops
would help in your case.  The PCM ops is called *after* trigger-STOP
is issued, while your case requires the serialization of trigger call
itself.

But I'm still wondering whether the current implementation is safe,
too.  Basically the scheduled work may be executed immediately after
queuing, so if it's about the timing issue, it's not solid solution.
Pushing to work helps if it's about the locking issue, though.
