2. Inject delay in recv_work

3. Create nbd server
nbd-server 8000 /tmp/disk
4. Create nbd client
nbd-client localhost 8000 /dev/nbd1
Then will trigger above issue.

Reason is when add delay in recv_work, lead to relase the last reference
of 'nbd->config_refs'. nbd_config_put will call flush_workqueue to make
all work finish. Obviously, it will lead to deadloop.
To solve this issue, we must ensure 'recv_work' all exit before release
the last 'nbd->config_refs' reference count.
