Nicolin Chen 14b41a2959 net: stmmac: Delete txtimer in suspend()
When running v5.5 with a rootfs on NFS, memory abort may happen in
the system resume stage:

It's found that stmmac_xmit() and stmmac_resume() sometimes might
run concurrently, possibly resulting in a race condition between
mod_timer() and setup_timer(), being called by stmmac_xmit() and
stmmac_resume() respectively.

Since the resume() runs setup_timer() every time, it'd be safer to
have del_timer_sync() in the suspend() as the counterpart.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
