Subject: [PATCH 0/27] Use setup_timer

These patches group a call to init_timer and initialization of the function
and data fields into a call to setup_timer.  Is there is no initialization
of the data field before add_timer is called, the the data value is set to
0UL.  If the data value has a cast to something other than unsigned long,
it is changes to a cast to unsigned long, which is the type of the data
field.

The semantic patch that performs this change is shown below
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/).  This semantic patch is fairly restrictive on
what appears between the init_timer call and the two field initializations,
to ensure that the there is no code that the initializations depend on.
