Subject: [PATCH] hte: tegra194-test: shut down timer before GPIO release

tegra_hte_test_remove() releases GPIO descriptors before stopping
hte.timer. gpio_timer_cb() accesses hte.gpio_out and rearms the timer, so
a callback concurrent with remove can use a released descriptor and rearm
after teardown.

Shut down the timer before releasing the GPIO descriptors.
timer_shutdown_sync() waits for a running callback and prevents it from
being rearmed.

[PATCH 6.12.y] hte: tegra194-test: shut down timer before GPIO release

a callback concurrent with remove can use a released descriptor and rearm
after teardown.
