    linuxkpi: races between linux_queue_delayed_work_on() and linux_cancel_delayed_work_sync()
    
    1. Suppose that linux_queue_delayed_work_on() is called with
       non-zero delay and found the work.state WORK_ST_IDLE. It
       resets the state to WORK_ST_TIMER and locks timer.mtx. Now, if
       linux_cancel_delayed_work_sync() was also called meantime, read
       state as WORK_ST_TIMER and already taken the mutex, it is executing
       callout_stop() on non-armed callout. Then linux_queue_delayed_work_on()
       continues and schedules callout.  But the return value from cancel() is
       false, making it possible to the requeue from callback to slip in.
    
    2. If linux_cancel_delayed_work_sync() returned true, we need to cancel
       again.  The requeue from callback could have revived the work.
    
    The end result is that we schedule callout that might be freed, since
    cancel_delayed_work_sync() claims that everything was stopped.  This
    contradicts the way the KPI is used in Linux, where consumers expect
    that cancel_delayed_work_sync() is reliable on its own.
