But the work that is being cancelled or flushed also uses the config_mutex. Fix the resulting deadlock possibility by calling cancel_work_sync earlier without holding the mutex. The best place to do is is after offlining the device. No new port scan work will be scheduled for the offline device, so this is a safe place to call cancel_work_sync.
