That's incomplete the timer_pending() check is racy as well and the
timer is rearming itself from the callback.

Not sure about that one as the timer might be rearmed, so the
invocation might need to be further down the cleanup path.

Looks wrong, as the timer might be rearmed by the thread which is
not yet stopped.

Yep.

The driver might still be in use, as the devices are shut down via the
pci_unregister_driver() call below. So while it's correct to use
del_timer_sync() it's not clear w/o digging deeper into the code
whether it's actually sufficient.

The timer is self rearming and has protection against the removal of
the devices. So it should be fine.

Correct as the only rearm is from the timer callback itself

Looks correct as well. Timer is rearming no other dependencies.
