[PATCH] move exit_task_work() before exit_fs().

We encountered following panic. The scenario is the process is exiting and executing its
task work. When closing dev node, the driver triggers a firmware reload according to device
status. Because task->fs is set to NULL in exit_fs(), panic happens.
Task work is a common interface, we should not limite the resource the user will utilize.
