In vudc_probe, it calls init_vudc_hw, which bound &udc->timer with v_timer.

When it calls usbip_sockfd_store, it will call v_start_timer to start the 
timer work.

When we call vudc_remove to remove the driver, theremay be a sequence as 
follows:

Fix it by shutdown the timer work before cleanup in vudc_remove.

Note that removing a driver is a root-only operation, and should never
happen.

CPU0                  CPU1

                     |v_timer
vudc_remove          |
kfree(udc);          |
//free shost         |
                     |udc->gadget
                     |//use

This bug was found by static analysis.
