[PATCH] scsi: dc395x: sync the waiting_timer before freeing the host

The waiting_timer callback re-arms itself and takes the host lock.
adapter_uninit() currently stops it with timer_delete(), which does not
wait for a callback already running on another CPU. The final
scsi_host_put() that frees the host (and the host lock the callback
dereferences) runs right after adapter_uninit(), so a concurrent or just
re-armed callback can fire after the free, leaving a potential
use-after-free window.

Replace timer_delete() with timer_shutdown_sync() and move it after
free_irq(), outside the host-lock section. This waits for a running
callback and prevents it from re-arming, while avoiding the self-deadlock
that would result from syncing a callback blocked on the lock we still
hold.

selto_timer is left untouched; it has no reachable armer or callback.

This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.
