nilfs2: remove sc_timer_task
After commit f5d4e046 ("nilfs2: fix use-after-free of timer for log writer thread") is applied, nilfs_construct_timeout(), which is called by a timer and wakes up the log writer thread, is never called after the log writer thread has terminated. As a result, the member variable "sc_timer_task" of the "nilfs_sc_info" structure, which was added when timer_setup() was adopted to retain a reference to the log writer thread's task even after it had terminated, is no longer needed, as it should be; we can simply use "sc_task" instead, which holds a reference to the log writer thread's task for its lifetime. So, eliminate "sc_timer_task" by this means.
