[PATCH/RFC 1/6] drm: Delete the vblank timer synchronously at cleanup time

[Laurent Pinchart]

A race condition exists in drm_vblank_cleanup() if the vblank disable
timer callback runs after freeing the memory that its callback function
tries to access. Fix this by deleting the timer synchronously.
