There is a scenario where gb_timesync_svc_remove() can run, attain a mutex and call cancel_delayed_work_sync(). In the meantime a worker may already be running and trying to attain the same mutex but will never do so as the gb_timesync_svc_remove() path is holding the mutex and waiting on the delayed_work_sync() to complete - leading to deadlock. This patch addresses by calling the cancel_delayed_work_sync() before locking the relevant mutex.
