[PATCH 5/7] MIPS: Lasat: replace del_timer by del_timer_sync

From: Julia Lawall <Julia.Lawall@xxxxxxx>

Use del_timer_sync to ensure that the timer is stopped on all CPUs before
the driver exists.

This change was suggested by Thomas Gleixner

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
