When the dim worker is scheduled, if it fails to acquire the lock,
dim may not be able to return to the working state later.

For example, the following single queue scenario:
   1. The dim worker of rxq0 is scheduled, and the dim status is
      changed to DIM_APPLY_NEW_PROFILE;
   2. The ethtool command is holding rtnl lock;
   3. Since the rtnl lock is already held, virtnet_rx_dim_work fails
      to acquire the lock and exits;

Then, even if net_dim is invoked again, it cannot work because the
state is not restored to DIM_START_MEASURE.

OK but this means that in cleanup it is not sufficient to flush
dim work - it can requeue itself.

We did not use the flush work operation, cancel_work_sync will handle the re-queue situation:

   "Cancel @work and wait for its execution to finish. This function
   can be used even if the work re-queues itself or migrates to
   another workqueue. On return from this function, @work is
   guaranteed to be not pending or executing on any CPU."

Thanks.
