nf: IDLETIMER: Fix use after free condition during work

schedule_work(&timer->work) appears to be called after
cancel_work_sync(&info->timer->work) is completed.
Work can be scheduled from the PM_POST_SUSPEND notification event
even after cancel_work_sync is called.

Force any pending idletimer_tg_work() to complete before freeing
the associated work struct and after unregistering to the pm_notifier
callback.
