    JFFS2: fix unmount regression
    
    This patch fixes regression introduced by
    "8bdc81c jffs2: get rid of jffs2_sync_super". We submit a delayed work in order
    to make sure the write-buffer is synchronized at some point. But we do not
    flush it when we unmount, which causes an oops when we unmount the file-system
    and then the delayed work is executed.
    
    This patch fixes the issue by adding a "cancel_delayed_work_sync()" infocation
    in the '->sync_fs()' handler. This will make sure the delayed work is canceled
    on sync, unmount and re-mount. And because VFS always callse 'sync_fs()' before
    unmounting or remounting, this fixes the issue.
