Steven Rostedt (Google) 292a089d78 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);
    )

    $ spatch timer.cocci . > /tmp/t.patch
    $ patch -p1 < /tmp/t.patch
