[PATCH RT 09/13] kernel/hrtimer: migrate deferred timer on CPU down

From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
Date: 2018-01-17 15:18:12
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: high-resolution timers, timer wheel, clockevents, the rest · Maintainers: Anna-Maria Behnsen, Frederic Weisbecker, Thomas Gleixner, Linus Torvalds

3.18.91-rt98-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

hrtimers, which were deferred to the softirq context, and expire between
softirq shutdown and hrtimer migration are dangling around. If the CPU
goes back up the list head will be initialized and this corrupts the
timer's list. It will remain unnoticed until a hrtimer_cancel().
This moves those timers so they will expire.
