Subject: [PATCH 2/2] kthread: Do not use TIMER_IRQSAFE
Date: Tue, 12 Feb 2019 17:25:54 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190212162554.19779-2-bigeasy@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190212162554.19779-1-bigeasy@linutronix.de>

The TIMER_IRQSAFE was introduced in commit

  22597dc3d97b1 ("kthread: initial support for delayed kthread work")

which modelled the delayed kthread code after workqueue's code. The
workqueue code requires the flag TIMER_IRQSAFE for synchronisation
purpose. This is not true for kthread's delay timer since all
operations occur under a lock.

Remove TIMER_IRQSAFE from the timer initialisation.
Use timer_setup() for initialisation purpose which is the official
function.
