In case bind() works, but a later error forces bailing
in probe() in error cases work and a timer may be scheduled.
They must be killed. This fixes an error case related to
the double free reported in
http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg367669.html
and needs to go on top of Linus' fix to cdc-ncm.

Applied, thanks Oliver.

How far back does this bug exist?  I'm trying to figure out what
-stable branchs to send it to.
It goes back to 3.12

	HTH
