No. I pulled in new timer code in and had to redo this part of RT. While doing so I noticed that we drop the base lock during timer invocations and so it could be possible that we have two invocations of del_timer_sync() on a timer on the same "base" (one after the other). This is patch #1. After that I saw that we do the wake up under the base lock but there is no reason for it. So here is patch #2. Patch #1 is something that could happen in theory and I did not run in any problem.
