Yes, but this css hasn't been installed yet.

And this is a different css. cgroup->self which isn't connected to the half
built css which got destroyed in css_create().

So, I have a bit of difficulty following this scenario. The way that the
current code uses destroy_work is definitely nasty and it'd probably be a
good idea to separate out the different use cases, but let's first
understand what's failing.

Thanks.
