timer statistics: fix race
Fix two races in the timer stats lookup code. One by ensuring that the
initialization of a new entry is finished upon insertion of that entry.
The other by cleaning up the hash table when the entries array is cleared,
so that we don't have any "pre-inserted" entries.
Thanks to Eric Dumazet for reminding me of the memory barriers.
