syzbot is reporting that del_timer_sync() is called from
mwifiex_usb_cleanup_tx_aggr() from mwifiex_unregister_dev() without
checking timer_setup() from mwifiex_usb_tx_init() was called [1].
Since mwifiex_usb_prepare_tx_aggr_skb() is calling del_timer() if
is_hold_timer_set == true, use the same condition for del_timer_sync().

A patch from Ganapathi Bhat ( https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10990275/ ) is stalling
at https://lore.kernel.org/linux-usb/MN2PR18MB2637D7C742BC235FE38367F0A09C0@MN2PR18MB2637.namprd18.prod.outlook.com/ (local) .
syzbot by now got this report for 10000 times. Do we want to go with this simple patch?
