This is a bit problematic. You see we rely on this always working
(prior to the suspend handler) to handle the case of HW reconfig
before suspend.

The better option for wlcore would be to flush the workqueue again
after setting suspended = true, but i'm not sure if it's possible.

At the very least we'll have to know the work was not queued (via a ret val?).
