Oh dang, you're correct. This will deadlock. And the PMIMR is really just
cosmetic. So putting the cancel_work_sync into intel_modeset_cleanup
sounds like the right approach. And hey, I've already put other work
cancelling stuff there in my last fury at fixing module unload, so it
can't be that bad ;-)

I'll try to write a better patch tomorrow.
