Subject[PATCH 3.16 097/202] s390/qeth: cancel close_dev work before removing a card
3.16.66-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com>

commit c2780c1a3fb724560b1d44f7976e0de17bf153c7 upstream.

A card's close_dev work is scheduled on a driver-wide workqueue. If the
card is removed and freed while the work is still active, this causes a
use-after-free.
So make sure that the work is completed before freeing the card.

Fixes: 0f54761d167f ("qeth: Support VEPA mode")
