I tested it in the evening with the system I implemented it for
originally. It seems to work -- it does not oops as would the original
code without the call to flush_scheduled_work() nor does it deadlock as
would code with the call (and no special precautions).

Thanks a lot (and congrats for still being capable of doing something
else from merging).
