backing-dev: ensure wakeup_timer is deleted



bdi_prune_sb() in bdi_unregister() attempts to removes the bdi links
from all super_blocks and then del_timer_sync() the writeback timer.

However, this can race with __mark_inode_dirty(), leading to
bdi_wakeup_thread_delayed() rearming the writeback timer on the bdi
we're unregistering, after we've called del_timer_sync().

This can end up with the bdi being freed with an active timer inside it,
as in the case of the following dump after the removal of an SD card.

Fix this by redoing the del_timer_sync() in bdi_destory().
