Hi Kees,

This patch should be split I think. I can send a patch to add
the missing destroy_timer_on_stack() call (which may get in
as a fix) and then we add a patch to update the timer setup
API.

drivers/firmware/psci_checker.c: In function 'suspend_test_thread':
drivers/firmware/psci_checker.c:290:2: error: implicit declaration of
function 'timer_setup_on_stack' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
  timer_setup_on_stack(&wakeup_timer, dummy_callback, 0);
    ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On which tree this change is based on ?

I will send out the fix separately and CC you in.

Thanks,
Lorenzo
