    rxrpc: Restore removed timer deletion
    
    [ Upstream commit ee3b0826b4764f6c13ad6db67495c5a1c38e9025 ]
    
    A recent patch[1] from Eric Dumazet flipped the order in which the
    keepalive timer and the keepalive worker were cancelled in order to fix a
    syzbot reported issue[2].  Unfortunately, this enables the mirror image bug
    whereby the timer races with rxrpc_exit_net(), restarting the worker after
    it has been cancelled:
    
            CPU 1           CPU 2
            =============== =====================
                            if (rxnet->live)
                            <INTERRUPT>
            rxnet->live = false;
            cancel_work_sync(&rxnet->peer_keepalive_work);
                            rxrpc_queue_work(&rxnet->peer_keepalive_work);
            del_timer_sync(&rxnet->peer_keepalive_timer);
    
    Fix this by restoring the removed del_timer_sync() so that we try to remove
    the timer twice.  If the timer runs again, it should see ->live == false
    and not restart the worker.
