 timer_stats collects information about the timer events which are fired in a
 Linux system over a sample period:
-
-- the pid of the task(process) which initialized the timer
-- the name of the process which initialized the timer
-- the function where the timer was initialized
-- the callback function which is associated to the timer
-- the number of events (callbacks)

Hi,

Actually I think this part could be even removed instead of reformatted,
because it's almost a copy of the later enumeration of the columns of
/proc/timer_stats format some lines below.

Best regards.

Yes, I think that's the right thing. I think I accidentally left that
in when editing the original patch. I've removed.
