Which part is sub-optimal, deferring or checking if the work is scheduled?

I thought  from the comment above the declaration, its clear why i am 
creating 2 work structures.
late_init_work is to optimize resume time and late_init_test_ib_work is 
to optimize the boot time.
There cant be race as the context in which they are called are totally 
different.

mod_delayed_work() is safer and optimal method that replaces 
cancel_delayed_work() followed by queue_delayed_work().

But if you strongly insist i don't mind changing it.

Agree, wasn't sure of what to do here :).
So i will re-spin with the flush part added. Hope this reply clarifies 
your comments.
Thanks.
