Ah. Not what I meant. I was suggesting you add a little function locally
that has the right type and in turn calls cancel_delayed_work().
As that directly exposes the actual function calls, any signature change in future
will cause compile breakage (or be picked up any automated tools doing that refactor).

See above.
