Subject: media: bttv: fix use after free error due to btv->timeout timer
Author:  Zheng Wang <zyytlz...@163.com>
Date:    Thu Apr 13 11:49:42 2023 +0800

There may be some a race condition between timer function
bttv_irq_timeout and bttv_remove. The timer is setup in
probe and there is no timer_delete operation in remove
function. When it hit kfree btv, the function might still be
invoked, which will cause use after free bug.

This bug is found by static analysis, it may be false positive.

Fix it by adding del_timer_sync invoking to the remove function.
