/**
* flush_scheduled_work - ensure that any scheduled work has run to completion.
*
* Forces execution of the kernel-global workqueue and blocks until its
* completion.
*
* Think twice before calling this function! It's very easy to get into
* trouble if you don't take great care. Either of the following situations
* will lead to deadlock:
*
* One of the work items currently on the workqueue needs to acquire
* a lock held by your code or its caller.
*
* Your code is running in the context of a work routine.
*
* They will be detected by lockdep when they occur, but the first might not
* occur very often. It depends on what work items are on the workqueue and
* what locks they need, which you have no control over.
*
* In most situations flushing the entire workqueue is overkill; you merely
* need to know that a particular work item isn't queued and isn't running.
* In such cases you should use cancel_delayed_work_sync() or
* cancel_work_sync() instead.
