The sync reset flow can lead to the following deadlock when
poll_sync_reset() is called by timer softirq and waiting on
del_timer_sync() for the same timer. Fix that by moving the part of the
flow that waits for the timer to reset_reload_work.
It fixes the following kernel Trace:
RIP: 0010:del_timer_sync+0x32/0x40
...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
