We are about to free the data structure. Make sure no timer callback
is running. I might be paranoid, but the ->exit callback can be
invoked from so many places, that it is not entirely clear whether
del_timer is always called on the cpu on which it is enqueued.

While looking through the call sites I noticed, that
cpufreq_init_policy() can fail and invoke cpufreq_driver->exit() but
it does not return the failure and the callsite happily proceeds.
