Adding to the table and setting delayed work are done under a lock so
I think it should be okay. I'll add a comment to the function that the
lock is held.

I'll move it up, but net_rslv_cancel_all_delayed_work is only called
when we're destroying the table so it would be a bug in the higher
layer if it is both destroying the table and adding entries at the
same time.
