Subject: [PATCH] scsi: message: mptlan: Fix use after free bug in mptlan_remove due to race condition

In mptlan_probe, it called mpt_register_lan_device and bound
&priv->post_buckets_task with mpt_lan_post_receive_buckets_work.
When it calls lan_reply, it will finally call
mpt_lan_wake_post_buckets_task to start the work.

When we call mptlan_remove to remove the driver, there
may be a sequence as follows:

Fix it by finishing the work before cleanup in mptlan_remove

CPU0 CPU1

|mpt_lan_post_receive_buckets_work
mptlan_remove |
free_netdev |
kfree(dev); |
|
| dev->mtu
| //use
