I was under the impression that if we reach the point where we start
executing the worker, then a second schedule_work() would cause the
worker to run again. But I might be mistaken here.

What I do expect though is that if we for some reason don't start
executing the work before the state becomes UP again, the UCSI core
wouldn't know that the firmware has been reset.


My proposal is to accept this risk for v6.11 (and get the benefit of
things actually working) and then take a new swing at getting rid of all
these workers for v6.12/13. Does that sound reasonable?
