nbd: fix shutdown and recv work deadlock v2
This fixes a regression added with: commit e9e006f5 Author: Mike Christie <mchristi@redhat.com> Date: Sun Aug 4 14:10:06 2019 -0500 nbd: fix max number of supported devs where we can deadlock during device shutdown. The problem occurs if the recv_work's nbd_config_put occurs after nbd_start_device_ioctl has returned and the userspace app has droppped its reference via closing the device and running nbd_release. The recv_work nbd_config_put call would then drop the refcount to zero and try to destroy the config which would try to do destroy_workqueue from the recv work. This patch just has nbd_start_device_ioctl do a flush_workqueue when it wakes so we know after the ioctl returns running works have exited. This also fixes a possible race where we could try to reuse the device while old recv_works are still running.
