Firstly, thank you for your explanations in details in your area of
responsibility.
At least this means you are warm-hearted, and can spend your time
resources on it.

I really do not know about the timer wheel works in detail.
I never said I am familiar with kernel, in fact, I often said I am not
quite familiar with kernel (you can find it in my many other replying
mails).
Is it necessary to give some related comments for it (the 'found' is
really in an informal using way) ?
We'd better let our code much readable for 'many readers' (which may not
know about more details, e.g. timer wheel).
Do my reply politely ? ;-)

OK.
For cooperation, every members are joined with their own willing, not by
force, but really need duty.
This time, it does not need duty, it is really a recommend.
Thanks.
