rxrpc: fix a race in rxrpc_exit_net()

Current code can lead to the following race:

CPU0                                                 CPU1

rxrpc_exit_net()
                                                     rxrpc_peer_keepalive_worker()
                                                       if (rxnet->live)

  rxnet->live = false;
  del_timer_sync(&rxnet->peer_keepalive_timer);

                                                             timer_reduce(&rxnet->peer_keepalive_timer, jiffies + delay);

  cancel_work_sync(&rxnet->peer_keepalive_work);

rxrpc_exit_net() exits while peer_keepalive_timer is still armed,
leading to use-after-free.
