staging: speakup: Replace del_timer with del_timer_sync
Use del_timer_sync to ensure timer is stopped on all CPUs before the driver exists and the timer should not run when the module is being removed. Since the timer is not called from an interrupt context, this change is safe and will not cause deadlock. The Coccinelle semantic patch used to make this change is as follows: // <smpl> @r@ declarer name module_exit; identifier ex; @@ module_exit(ex); @@ identifier r.ex; @@ ex(...) { <... - del_timer + del_timer_sync (...) ...> } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Amitoj Kaur Chawla <amitoj1606@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
