mISDN: hfcpci: Fix use-after-free bug in hfcpci_softirq

The function hfcpci_softirq() is a timer handler. If it
is running, the timer_pending() will return 0 and the
del_timer_sync() in HFC_cleanup() will not be executed.
As a result, the use-after-free bug will happen. The
process is shown below:

    (cleanup routine)          |        (timer handler)
HFC_cleanup()                  | hfcpci_softirq()
 if (timer_pending(&hfc_tl))   |
   del_timer_sync()            |
 ...                           | ...
 pci_unregister_driver(hc)     |
  driver_unregister            |  driver_for_each_device
   bus_remove_driver           |   _hfcpci_softirq
    driver_detach              |   ...
     put_device(dev) //[1]FREE |
                               |    dev_get_drvdata(dev) //[2]USE

The device is deallocated is position [1] and used in
position [2].

Fix by removing the "timer_pending" check in HFC_cleanup(),
which makes sure that the hfcpci_softirq() have finished
before the resource is deallocated.
