[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.18-6.12] hwmon: (raspberrypi) Fix delayed-work teardown race

From: Shubham Chakraborty <redacted>

[ Upstream commit eb0d491e2787aa359f0d930151ff6e5e5df70fb9 ]

The delayed polling work rearms itself from the work function, so use
explicit delayed-work setup and cleanup instead of
devm_delayed_work_autocancel().

Initialize the delayed work with INIT_DELAYED_WORK() and register a
devres cleanup action that calls disable_delayed_work_sync() during
teardown.

This addresses the concern raised during review about the polling work
being able to requeue itself while the driver is being removed.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

Those background searches finished and match the earlier analysis:

- On **6.18.44 (HEAD)**, `git log --grep` does not find this fix — only
  unrelated teardown commits show up.
- On **master**, the fix is **`eb0d491e2787a`** (`hwmon: (raspberrypi)
  Fix delayed-work teardown race`), merged via the `hwmon-for-v7.2` tag.
- It is present on **next** branches (`all-next`, `arch-next`, etc.) but
  **not** on the checked-out **6.18.y** stable tree.

That confirms the patch still needs to be backported to 6.18.44, and the
**YES** recommendation stands.
