Hmm, so it wasn't a good idea to call hrtimer_cancel() in the
spinlock, in anyway. Scratch the previous one.

OK, below is the yet revised two patches. One is the simplified
version of the patch, and another is to call hrtimer_cancel() in a new
timer op without spinlock. Apply these after the first patch
"ALSA: timer: Allow backend disabling start/stop from handler".


thanks,

Takashi
