[v4 RFC PATCH 2/4] timers: Identifying the existing pinned timers

[Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

* Arun R Bharadwaj <arun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> [2009-04-01 17:01:28]:

The following pinned hrtimers have been identified and marked:
1)sched_rt_period_timer
2)tick_sched_timer
3)stack_trace_timer_fn
