hp_accel: fix race in device removal
commit 06efbeb4a47b6f865e1c9d175ab9d6e90b69ae9e upstream.
The work queue has to be flushed after the device has been made
inaccessible. The patch closes a window during which a work queue might
remain active after the device is removed and would then lead to ACPI
calls with undefined behavior.
