[SCSI] pm8001: simplify workqueue usage
pm8001 manages its own list of pending works and cancel them on device
free. It is unnecessarily complex and has a race condition - the
works are canceled but not synced, so the work could still be running
during and after the data structures are freed.
This patch simplifies workqueue usage.
* A driver specific workqueue pm8001_wq is created to serve these
work items.
* To avoid confusion, the "queue" suffixes are dropped from work items
and functions.
* Delayed queueing was never used. pm8001_work now uses work_struct
instead.
* The driver no longer keeps track of pending works. All pm8001_works
are queued to pm8001_wq and the workqueue is flushed as necessary.
flush_scheduled_work() usage is removed during conversion.
