If pnfsiod_workqueue is a global pnfs resource that users should
only use with global pnfsiod_start/stop() then I would like
a wrapper around queue_work, pnfsiod_queue_work(tk_work) that
keeps the pnfsiod_workqueue private to that subsystem. (And
the proper checks could be made, and races avoided)

What? why not a simple:
+	int ret = 0;

+	spin_lock(&pnfs_spinlock);
+	if (pnfsiod_workqueue == NULL) {
+		pnfsiod_workqueue = alloc_workqueue("pnfsiod", WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, 0);
+		if (unlikely!(pnfsiod_workqueue)) {
+			ret = -ENOMEM;
			goto out;
		}
+	}
+	pnfsiod_users++;
+ out:
+	spin_unlock(&pnfs_spinlock);
+	return ret;

Does destroy_workqueue wait for all pending work?

As I said:
+extern int pnfsiod_queue_work(...);

Thanks for doing this, looks good other wise
