This looks like ASAN problem

ffffffff81a5f1d9: e8 72 74 b7 ff call
ffffffff815d6650 <__sanitizer_cov_trace_pc>
ffffffff81a5f1de: 4a 8d 3c e5 a0 9e b4 lea rdi,[r12*8-0x7b4b6160]
ffffffff81a5f1e5: 84
ffffffff81a5f1e6: 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 movabs rax,0xdffffc0000000000
ffffffff81a5f1ed: fc ff df
ffffffff81a5f1f0: 48 89 fa mov rdx,rdi
ffffffff81a5f1f3: 48 c1 ea 03 shr rdx,0x3
ffffffff81a5f1f7: 80 3c 02 00 ===>cmp BYTE PTR
[rdx+rax*1],0x0 <====

This is code injected by KASAN_INLINE

timer_show() looks seemingly fine:
"timer" pointer is valid otherwise code would oopsed earlier
tp->ns is valid otherwise it'd oopsed inside pid_nr_ns()
