From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@xxxxxxx> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. =============== commit f146357f069e71aff8e474c625bcebcd3094b3ab upstream. ALSA timer core framework has no sync point at stopping because it's called inside the spinlock. Thus we need a sync point at close for avoiding the stray timer task. This is simply done by implementing the close callback just calling del_timer_sync(). (It's harmless to call it unconditionally, as the core timer itself cares of the already deleted timer instance.)
