this patch fixes double free of paging request.
the function paging_T3113_expired() must call paging_remove_request() first. then the cbfn may be called. the cbfn function cannot eventually remove the paging request again, because it is not in the list anymore.
the result of paging timeout was a crash.

Ack, this has one issue though... "req" now points to freed memory. We will need to put a copy of the callback and the data somewhere before calling the callback. I'm doing this right now.
