I don't know if it is really meaningful if you want to handle such pool signal... 
Ok, if you want to handle this ultimate case, will this patch work?

        BUG_ON(irq != gpio_to_irq(button->gpio));

+       cancel_delayed_work_sync(&bdata->work);
        delay = button->debounce_interval ?
                        msecs_to_jiffies(button->debounce_interval) : 0;
        schedule_delayed_work(&bdata->work, delay);
