USB: fix locking loop by avoiding flush_scheduled_work
This patch (as1027) replaces a call to flush_scheduled_work() -- a dangerous routine to invoke, especially while holding any sort of lock -- with calls to cancel_work_sync() and cancel_delayed_work_sync(). This fixes Bugzilla #9532. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> CC: David Brownell <david-b@pacbell.net> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
