So, while this *should* work, can't we just cancel/flush the work item
from offline? There doesn't seem to be any possible deadlocks from my
shallow glance and those mutexes don't seem to be held for long (do
they actually need to be mutexes? what blocks inside them?).
Also, while at it, can you please remove the work_pending() check?
They're almost always spurious or racy and should be avoided in
general.
Thanks.
