Subject: [PATCH 5.10.y 05/15] timers: Get rid of del_singleshot_timer_sync()
Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2026 02:13:00 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260219171310.118170-6-aha310510@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260219171310.118170-1-aha310510@gmail.com>

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

[ Upstream commit 9a5a305686971f4be10c6d7251c8348d74b3e014 ]

del_singleshot_timer_sync() used to be an optimization for deleting timers
which are not rearmed from the timer callback function.

This optimization turned out to be broken and got mapped to
del_timer_sync() about 17 years ago.

Get rid of the undocumented indirection and use del_timer_sync() directly.

No functional change.
