The patch titled
     Subject: timer_list: convert timer list to be a proper seq_file
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     timer_list-convert-timer-list-to-be-a-proper-seq_file.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

From: Nathan Zimmer <nzimmer@xxxxxxx>
Subject: timer_list: convert timer list to be a proper seq_file

When running with 4096 cores attemping to read /proc/timer_list will fail
with an ENOMEM condition.  On a sufficantly large systems the total amount
of data is more then 4mb, so it won't fit into a single buffer.  The
failure can also occur on smaller systems when memory fragmentation is
high as reported by Dave Jones.

Convert /proc/timer_list to a proper seq_file with its own iterator.  This
is a little more complex given that we have to make two passes with two
separate headers.

sysrq_timer_list_show also needed to be updated to reflect the fact that
now timer_list_show only does one cpu at at time.
