Originally I did try adding just cancel_delayed_work_sync() although I
put it immediately following:

        iwl3945_rfkill_unregister(priv);
        cancel_delayed_work(&priv->rfkill_poll);

Wondered why that didn't work and hunted down the unnecessary calls to
queue_delayed_work() that were causing the issue and made them
conditional on STATUS_EXIT_PENDING.

Then I decided to be absolutely sure and moved cancel_delayed_work()
further down and for some reason mis-used cancel_work_sync() instead of
cancel_delayed_work_sync() - not paying attention I guess!
