Subject: [PATCH 6.12.y 6.6.y 6.1.y 5.15.y 5.10.y 5.4.y] ALSA: usb-audio: Kill timer properly at removal

From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@...e.de>

[ Upstream commit 0718a78f6a9f04b88d0dc9616cc216b31c5f3cf1 ]

The USB-audio MIDI code initializes the timer, but in a rare case, the
driver might be freed without the disconnect call.  This leaves the
timer in an active state while the assigned object is released via
snd_usbmidi_free(), which ends up with a kernel warning when the debug
configuration is enabled, as spotted by fuzzer.

For avoiding the problem, put timer_shutdown_sync() at
snd_usbmidi_free(), so that the timer can be killed properly.
While we're at it, replace the existing timer_delete_sync() at the
disconnect callback with timer_shutdown_sync(), too.
