First check.

Check again.

I don't think the if (!fc->inval_wq) check needs to be re-evaluated
while holding the lock. The reason is that the inval_wq variable 
doesn't appear to require lock protection. It only gets assigned 
during fuse_conn_init and fuse_conn_destroy. Furthermore, 
in fuse_conn_destroy we set inval_wq to zero without holding a lock, 
and then synchronously cancel any pending work items. 

Therefore, performing this check twice with if (!fc->inval_wq) 
seems unnecessary.

Also, in the subject, it would be more appropriate to change
"work queue" to "workqueue".
