H A Dpktgen.cdiff d3ede327e83f202c3a0962e207318f65717c5eb7 Tue May 20 17:12:44 CDT 2008 Denis V. Lunev <den@openvz.org> pktgen: make sure that pktgen_thread_worker has been executed

The following courruption can happen during pktgen stop:
list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffff81007e8a5e70, but was 6b6b6b6b6b6b6b6b
kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:67!

RIP list_del+0x48/0x70

The problem is that pktgen_thread_worker can not be executed if kthread_stop
has been called too early. Insert a completion on the normal initialization
path to make sure that pktgen_thread_worker will gain the control for sure.
