[PATCH] block/blk-stat: fix use-after-free on callback timer teardown

[Tao Cui <cui.tao@linux.dev>]

From: Tao Cui <cuitao@kylinos.cn>

blk_stat_remove_callback() cancels a callback's timer with
timer_delete_sync(), and its callers free the timer's data right after:
wbt_exit() does blk_stat_remove_callback() then wbt_free(), which
kfree()s struct rq_wb -- the very object the timer callback dereferences
as cb->data.

The blk-stat timer callback invokes the consumer's callback (wb_timer_fn
for WBT), which re-arms the timer via mod_timer() while there is
in-flight IO or an active scale_step.  By the timer API contract,
timer_delete_sync() is only meaningful when the caller guarantees the
timer is not restarted; with no shutdown guard in the callback, the
re-arm can win the race -- the callback re-arms the timer,
timer_delete_sync() returns, the data is freed, and the re-armed timer
later fires and dereferences freed memory.

Use timer_shutdown_sync(), which makes any later mod_timer() a no-op and
guarantees the timer cannot be queued or fire again once it returns.
blk_stat_remove_callback() is the generic teardown path for every
blk-stat callback, so this is safe for all users.
