It should, no idea why it isn't. Looking thru the code now I don't see
any obvious gaps where timer object is on a list but not active :S
There's no way to get a vmcore from syzbot, right? :)

Also I thought the shutdown leads to a warning when someone tries to
schedule the dead timer but in fact add_timer() just exits cleanly.
So the shutdown won't help us find the culprit :(
