Hmmm, well, then it's something else.  Either a bug in workqueue or in
the caller.  Given the track record, the latter is more likely.
e.g. it looks kinda suspicious that the work func is cleared after
cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called.  What happens if somebody tries
to schedule it inbetween?

Thanks.
