The timer function, zstd_reclaim_timer_fn(), reschedules itself under
certain conditions. Switch to del_timer_sync() to ensure that the timer
function hasn't rescheduled itself.

According to del_timer_sync it just waits for any concurrent invocation
to finish. But it's responsibility of the caller to ensure the timer
cannot really be restarted. It's not obvious how
zstd_cleanup_workspace_manager ensures that the timer won't be restared.
Looking at the timer function for it to not restart wsm.lru_list has to
be empty. And seeing that workspace->lru_list is deleted afterwards I'm
not sure this invariant holds.

Hmmm, I see. I misunderstood the invariant. I'll spin v2 and handle it
another way.

Thanks,
