patches/timers-prepare-for-full-preemption.patch

From: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Subject: timers: Prepare for full preemption

When softirqs can be preempted we need to make sure that cancelling
the timer from the active thread can not deadlock vs. a running timer
callback. Add a waitqueue to resolve that.
