I think we both mean the same thing. Preventing the handler from access sounds to me more like "when the handler starts running, it is prevented from accessing the device" (like with setting config_enable, as the code did before). What I meant was "common code has already ensured that our work-queueing function will not be called, therefore flushing the workqueue is enough."
