Subject: [PATCH 3.16 116/305] thermal: rcar_thermal: Prevent doing work
 after unbind

3.16.63-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert+renesas@...der.be>

commit 697ee786f15d7b65c7f3045d45fe3a05d28e0911 upstream.

When testing bind/unbind on r8a7791/koelsch:

    WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 697 at lib/debugobjects.c:329 debug_print_object+0x8c/0xb4
    ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object type: timer_list hint: delayed_work_timer_fn+0x0/0x10

This happens if the workqueue runs after the device has been unbound.
Fix this by cancelling any queued work during remove.
