    drm/amdkfd: Destroy KFD debugfs after destroy KFD wq

    Since KFD proc content was moved to kernel debugfs, we can’t destroy KFD
    debugfs before kfd_process_destroy_wq. Move kfd_process_destroy_wq prior
    to kfd_debugfs_fini to fix a kernel NULL pointer problem. It happens
    when /sys/kernel/debug/kfd was already destroyed in kfd_debugfs_fini but
    kfd_process_destroy_wq calls kfd_debugfs_remove_process. This line
    debugfs_remove_recursive(entry->proc_dentry);
    tries to remove /sys/kernel/debug/kfd/proc/ while
    /sys/kernel/debug/kfd is already gone. It hangs the kernel by kernel
    NULL pointer.
