Exactly.

Should be an existing one, never bothered about that condition before.

One hack would be

is_pending = cancel_delayed_work_sync(&adev->gfx.gfx_off_delay_work);

	if ((adev->gfx.gfx_off_state || !is_pending) &&

If work was never scheduled or pending, is_pending should be false OR if 
it got executed, gfx_off_state should be set.
