mISDN: fix misdn_add_timer()/misdn_del_timer() race
do add_timer() *before* unlocking dev->lock, or unpleasant things can happen if misdn_del_timer() on another CPU finds the sucker, calls del_timer_sync() (which does nothing, since we hadn't started the timer yet) and frees it, just as we get around to add_timer()...
