mhi_mbim_remove() cancels rx_refill before wwan_unregister_ops()
removes the links. Bringing a link up in between calls mhi_mbim_ndo_open()
and queues the work again. With the MHI channels already reset, the
work cannot refill RX buffers and keeps re-arming itself, eventually
running after devres frees the context.

Use disable_delayed_work_sync() to drain the work and reject later
queueing. Probe initializes fresh work on rebind.

Found by a static analysis tool under development.
