The first thing metric_delayed_work does is check mdsc->stopping,
and then return immediately if it's set...which is good since we would
have already torn down the metric structures at this point, otherwise.
Worse yet, it's possible that the ceph_metric_destroy call could race
with the delayed_work, in which case we could end up a end up accessing
destroyed percpu variables.
At this point in the mdsc teardown, the "stopping" flag has already been
set, so there's no benefit to flushing the work. Just cancel it instead,
and do so before we tear down the metrics structures.
