A kthread does an fput() and that file gets added to the list and the delayed work is scheduled. More than 1 jiffy passes, and the workqueue thread picks up the work and starts running it. Then the kthread calls flush_delayed_work. It sees that the list is empty and returns immediately, even though the __fput for its file may not have run yet. Close this by making flush_delayed_fput use flush_delayed_work instead, which should immediately schedule the work to run if it's not already, and block until the workqueue job completes.
