Apologies for the delay, fat fingers and holidays... :-/
I folded this into your earlier patch, resulting in the patch at the
end. Could you please let me know whether this matches your intent?
Thanx, Paul

commit 704c46852c8f8c15cc0ecb45b19f8d3cd983faa6

timer: Use hlist_unhashed_lockless() in timer_pending()
The timer_pending() function is mostly used in lockless contexts, so
Without proper annotations, KCSAN might detect a data-race [1].
Using hlist_unhashed_lockless() instead of hand-coding it seems
appropriate (as suggested by Paul E. McKenney).
