Yes, fuse_dev_release() can run concurrently to this path here. If
fuse_dev_release() comes in first, grabs the fpq->lock and splices the
fpq->processing[i] lists into &to_end, then releases the fpq->lock,
and then this fuse_check_timeout() grabs the fpq->lock, it'll see no
requests on the fpq->processing[i] lists. When the requests are
spliced onto the to_end list in fuse_dev_release(), they are removed
from the &fpq->processing[i] list.

For that reason I don't think we need a cancel_delayed_work_sync() at
the beginning of fuse_dev_release(), but also a connection can have
multiple devs associated with it and the workqueue job is
per-connection and not per-device.
