nfc: pn533: Fix buggy cleanup order

Browse Source 
When removing the pn533 device (i2c or USB), there is a logic error. The
original code first cancels the worker (flush_delayed_work) and then
destroys the workqueue (destroy_workqueue), leaving the timer the last
one to be deleted (del_timer). This result in a possible race condition
in a multi-core preempt-able kernel. That is, if the cleanup
(pn53x_common_clean) is concurrently run with the timer handler
(pn533_listen_mode_timer), the timer can queue the poll_work to the
already destroyed workqueue, causing use-after-free.

This patch reorder the cleanup: it uses the del_timer_sync to make sure
the handler is finished before the routine will destroy the workqueue.
Note that the timer cannot be activated by the worker again.

static void pn533_wq_poll(struct work_struct *work)
...
 rc = pn533_send_poll_frame(dev);
 if (rc)
   return;

 if (cur_mod->len == 0 && dev->poll_mod_count > 1)
   mod_timer(&dev->listen_timer, ...);

That is, the mod_timer can be called only when pn533_send_poll_frame()
returns no error, which is impossible because the device is detaching
and the lower driver should return ENODEV code.
