I thought that only one call on cancel_delayed_work_sync() cannot guarantee that after this function returned, the work had been finished, so if the work is still pending (return you TRUE) there
And the caller just continue and release driver, we would run to page fault in that work since all structures pointers accessed in that work is invalid now 

That's why I use a while() loop to keep calling cancel_delayed_work_sync() till the work is not pending any more

Is my understanding wrong ?...

Never use schedule() in a while loop as long as you don't work on core locking primitives or interrupt handling or stuff like that. In this particular case a single call to cancel_delayed_work_sync() should be sufficient.

Additional to that I think you can drop the "if (!amdgpu_sriov_vf(adev))" check and just test for "if (r)" or something like that. In other words if there is an error we need to cancel the late init work independent if we are on SRIOV or bare metal.

Regards,
Christian.
