SLOW_WORK: Wait for outstanding work items belonging to a module to clear 

Wait for outstanding slow work items belonging to a module to clear when
unregistering that module as a user of the facility.  This prevents the put_ref
code of a work item from being taken away before it returns.

Firstly, a module or subsystem wanting to make use of slow work items must
register its interest:
int ret = slow_work_register_user();
int ret = slow_work_register_user(struct module *module);
This will return 0 if successful, or a -ve error upon failure.
This will return 0 if successful, or a -ve error upon failure. The module
pointer should be the module interested in using this facility (almost
certainly THIS_MODULE).
Slow work items may then be set up by:

module has no further interest in the facility, it should unregister its
interest:
slow_work_unregister_user();

The module pointer is used to wait for all outstanding work items for that
module before completing the unregistration. This prevents the put_ref() code
from being taken away before it completes. module should almost certainly be
THIS_MODULE.
