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 make cleanup, there may
be a unfinished work.

The possiblesequence is as follows:

Fix it by finishing the work before cleanup in the
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
