[PATCH RT 07/15] kernel/hrtimer: migrate deferred timer on CPU down

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Fri Dec 01 2017 - 10:58:11 EST


4.9.65-rt57-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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.
