[PATCH] drm/i915: Avoid circular locking dependency when flush delayed work on gt reset

This attempts to avoid circular locking dependency between flush delayed work and intel_gt_reset.
Switched from cancel_delayed_work_sync to cancel_delayed_work, the non-sync version for reset path, it is safe as the worker has the trylock code to handle the lock; Meanwhile keep the sync version for park/fini to ensure the worker is not still running during suspend or shutdown.

WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected

kms_pipe_crc_ba/6415 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff88813e6cc640 ((work_completion)(&(&guc->timestamp.work)->work)){+.+.}-{0:0}, at: __flush_work+0x42/0x530

but task is already holding lock:
ffff88813e6cce90 (&gt->reset.mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: intel_gt_reset+0x19e/0x470 [i915]

which lock already depends on the new lock.
