Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/2] 6lowpan: reassembly: fix kernel oops while unloading

While fragmentation and unloading of 6lowpan module I got this kernel Oops
after few seconds:

It seems that the inet_frag_queue is deleted but the timer is running. This
patch adds a for loop to iterate over all frag_queue entries in the
frag_bucket and calling del_timer for each frag_queue entry while
unloading the 6lowpan module.

I am not sure about that I can do that in this simply way without hold
any lock of the inet_frag_queue or inet_frag_bucket. Please help there.
The kernel oops never occurs afterwards, but this isn't simple to test.
I can't test all cases.
