Hi Ingo,
Hmm... there are some ugly hoops there to make sure that they don't conflict with bottom halves or cli(). I assume you want to take that out: what will break if that happens, and do we need a disable_timers() interface to move code over?
Cheers, Rusty. PS. Also would be nice to #define del_timer del_timer_sync, and have a del_timer_async for those (very few) cases who really want this. -- Anyone who quotes me is an idiot -- Rusty Russell. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
