Back in April, I posted an RFC patch set to help mitigate a common issue where a timer gets armed just before it is freed, and when the timer goes off, it crashes in the timer code without any evidence of who the culprit was. I got side tracked and never finished up on that patch set. Since this type of crash is still our #1 crash we are seeing in the field, it has become a priority again to finish it.
After applying the patches attached below, everything compiles for me, and there are no crashes. There are still various warnings, most in networking. I know I need to apply some patch(es) to fix the networking warnings, but I didn't entirely understand what exactly to apply, so I didn't try.
Complete logs are at https://kerneltests.org/builders, on the bottom half of the page (qemu tests, in the 'testing' column).
