auxdisplay: ht16k33: fix potential user-after-free on module unload
On module unload/remove, we need to ensure that work does not run
after we have freed resources. Concretely, cancel_delayed_work()
may return while the callback function is still running.
From kernel/workqueue.c:
The work callback function may still be running on return,
unless it returns true and the work doesn't re-arm itself.
Explicitly flush or use cancel_delayed_work_sync() to wait on it.
