s390/ctcm: Fix use-after-free in channel_remove()

channel_remove() uses fsm_deltimer() which calls timer_delete(),
returning immediately even if the timer callback is running on
another CPU. This leaves a window where fsm_expire_timer() accesses
ch->fsm after kfree_fsm().

For MPC channels the teardown has a circular dependency:

  ch->timer callback -> ctcm_chx_txretry() -> mpc_action_go_inop()
    -> tasklet_hi_schedule(&ch->ch_disc_tasklet)

  ch_tasklet -> ctcmpc_send_sweep_resp() -> fsm_addtimer(&ch->sweep_timer)

  sweep_timer callback -> fsm_addtimer(&ch->timer)

Use timer_shutdown_sync() for both timers: it waits for any running
callback and permanently prevents rearming. Shut down sweep_timer
first (its callback rearms ch->timer at ctcm_fsms.c), then
ch->timer. Only then call tasklet_kill() -- catching any tasklet
scheduled by an in-flight callback before shutdown.
kfree(ch->discontact_th) follows tasklet_kill(ch_disc_tasklet) since
ch->ccw[15].cda points to discontact_th and
mpc_action_send_discontact() starts I/O through ch->ccw[15].

timer_shutdown_sync() is also used for non-MPC ch->timer:
ctcm_chx_txretry() (CTC_STATE_TX + CTC_EVENT_TIMER) calls
fsm_addtimer(&ch->timer) on both paths.

Depends on "s390/ctcm: Fix timer corruption in fsm_addtimer()" which
replaces add_timer() with mod_timer(). mod_timer() on a shut-down
timer is discarded; without it fsm_addtimer() calls timer_setup()
defeating timer_shutdown_sync(). Backporting without that
prerequisite is unsafe.
