Um.. why can't we just fold + flush_delayed_work_sync(&di->attach_work); Into "[PATCH 20/57] power: Adds support for legacy USB chargers"? Then + flush_delayed_work_sync(&di->usb_charger_attached_work); + flush_delayed_work_sync(&di->ac_charger_attached_work); Into "[PATCH 07/57] power: ab8500_bm: Detect removed charger" etc... That is, at the same time you introduce the work structs, you have to flush them appropriately. For work structs that were already in mainline, you'll have this patch to fixup things. But adding new code with known bugs, and then fixing them in one go is usually not how things should be done (unless there's a good technical reason behind this).
