   # HEAD: 20739af07383e6eb1ec59dcd70b72ebfa9ac362c timers: Fix NULL function pointer race in timer_shutdown_sync()

Miscellaneous fixes:

 - Fix a race in timer->function clearing in timer_shutdown_sync()

 - Fix a timekeeper sysfs-setup resource leak in error paths

 - Fix the NOHZ report_idle_softirq() syslog rate-limiting
   logic to have no side effects on the return value

 Thanks,

	Ingo
