Well found, thanks so much for that, I can confirm that this patch
works for me (though I'm not Maciej).

Since running recent gits on Core2 Duo, following resume from RAM,
within five minutes I'd get either a silent freeze, or a BUG at
kernel/timer.c:911, and/or DEBUG_LIST list.h warnings from
internal_add_timer().

Your patch puts an end to all that.  Something for Andi to rush to
Linus for -rc1 I think - though I won't be in the least surprised if
Andi decides on something a little different, it's rather surprising
to have that mcheck_init() call from over there in just the one case.

Thanks again,
Hugh
