If the user tries to reset/stop some other timer in it's callback
function, which is also about to expire, using 
rte_timer_reset_sync/rte_timer_stop_sync the application goes into
an infinite loop. This happens because 
rte_timer_reset_sync/rte_timer_stop_sync loop until the timer 
resets/stops and there is check inside timer_set_config_state which
prevents a running timer from being reset/stopped by not it's own 
timer_cb. Therefore timer_set_config_state returns -1 due to which 
rte_timer_reset returns -1 and rte_timer_reset_sync goes into an 
infinite loop. 

The soloution to this problem is to return -1 from 
rte_timer_reset_sync/rte_timer_stop_sync in case the user tries to 
reset/stop some other timer in it's callback function.
