No, It is just my guess. I was not fully sure if there is definitely no racing issue after init work is created. If that never happens, it would be good news to me

Another question I had is Is there any problem with rmmod the module with mt7921_init_work failure? It seemed to me that mt76_unregister_device might be called twice in the condition.

It is good to see we can shorten the time in the module probe. I was just worried whether we have good handling in any case.
