- * It's very easy to get into trouble if you don't take great care.
- * Either of the following situations will lead to deadlock:
- *
- * One of the work items currently on the workqueue needs to acquire
- * a lock held by your code or its caller.
- *
- * Your code is running in the context of a work routine.
- *
- * They will be detected by lockdep when they occur, but the first might not
- * occur very often. It depends on what work items are on the workqueue and
- * what locks they need, which you have no control over.
- *
- * In most situations flushing the entire workqueue is overkill; you merely
- * need to know that a particular work item isn't queued and isn't running.
- * In such cases you should use cancel_delayed_work_sync() or
- * cancel_work_sync() instead.
