    In saa7134_initdev, it will call saa7134_hwinit1. There are three
    function invoking here: saa7134_video_init1, saa7134_ts_init1
    and saa7134_vbi_init1.
    
    All of them will init a timer with same function. Take
    saa7134_video_init1 as an example. It'll bound &dev->video_q.timeout
    with saa7134_buffer_timeout.
    
    In buffer_activate, the timer funtcion is started.
    
    If we remove the module or device which will call saa7134_finidev
    to make cleanup, there may be a unfinished work. The
    possible sequence is as follows, which will cause a
    typical UAF bug.
    
    Fix it by canceling the timer works accordingly before cleanup in
    saa7134_finidev.
