This is beyond silly. d->rmid_busy_llc is allocated a few lines above. How
would a bit be set here?

What is that line break helping here and why can't you just unconditionally
cancel the work?

I think this is the wrong approach. If the timer is about to fire you
essentially double the interval. So you better flush the work, which will
reschedule it if needed.

That want's to be d->cbm_work_cpu, right?

See above.
