hwmon: (xgene) Fix use after free bug in xgene_hwmon_remove due to race condition 

[ Upstream commit cb090e64cf ]

In xgene_hwmon_probe, &ctx->workq is bound with xgene_hwmon_evt_work.
Then it will be started.

If we remove the driver which will call xgene_hwmon_remove to clean up,
there may be unfinished work.

The possible sequence is as follows:

Fix it by finishing the work before cleanup in xgene_hwmon_remove.

CPU0                  CPU1

                    |xgene_hwmon_evt_work
xgene_hwmon_remove   |
kfifo_free(&ctx->async_msg_fifo);|
                    |
                    |kfifo_out_spinlocked
                    |//use &ctx->async_msg_fifo
