That's using flush_work(), which just waits for one to complete. Is there
any case where multiple work entries could be queued, and cancel_work_sync()
would be necessary?

tpm_tis_probe_irq() has a loop calling tpm_tis_probe_irq_single()
for 3 to 15. Could each of those could trigger an interrupt storm and
call tpm_tis_revert_interrupts(), which calls schedule_work()?
