treewide: Convert del_timer*() to timer_shutdown*()
Due to several bugs caused by timers being re-armed after they are
shutdown and just before they are freed, a new state of timers was added
called "shutdown". After a timer is set to this state, then it can no
longer be re-armed.
The following script was run to find all the trivial locations where
del_timer() or del_timer_sync() is called in the same function that the
object holding the timer is freed. It also ignores any locations where
the timer->function is modified between the del_timer*() and the free(),
as that is not considered a "trivial" case.
This was created by using a coccinelle script and the following
commands:
$ cat timer.cocci
@@
expression ptr, slab;
identifier timer, rfield;
@@
(
- del_timer(&ptr->timer);
+ timer_shutdown(&ptr->timer);
|
- del_timer_sync(&ptr->timer);
+ timer_shutdown_sync(&ptr->timer);
)
... when strict
when != ptr->timer
(
kfree_rcu(ptr, rfield);
|
kmem_cache_free(slab, ptr);
|
kfree(ptr);
)
