The word 'relevant' probably reflects some previous state. It does not
bother me too much.

How about /* was kicked but didn't run yet */?

This could be a separate patch. I would like little more explanation
to this.

I blindly trust your choice here ;)

I'm not sure this cancel here is sufficient.

If you end up waiting here, I guess, it's likely that a new
timer is going to get set up right after we do
gisa->next_alert = (u32)(u64)gisa;
in  process_gib_alert_list().

Overall, there are couple of things I would prefer done differently,
but better something working today that something prefect in 6 months.
In that sense, provided my comment regarding destroy is addressed:
