acpi, nfit: Fix scrub idle detection
The notification of scrub completion happens within the scrub workqueue. That can clearly race someone running scrub_show() and work_busy() before the workqueue has a chance to flush the recently completed work. Add a flag to reliably indicate the idle vs busy state. Without this change applications using poll(2) to wait for scrub-completion may falsely wakeup and read ARS as being busy even though the thread is going idle and then hang indefinitely.
