Subject: [PATCH] kthread: Mark timer used by delayed kthread works as IRQ safe
The timer used by delayed kthread works are IRQ safe because the used
kthread_delayed_work_timer_fn() is IRQ safe.
It is properly marked when initialized by KTHREAD_DELAYED_WORK_INIT().
But TIMER_IRQSAFE flag is missing when initialized by
kthread_init_delayed_work().
The missing flag might trigger invalid warning from del_timer_sync()
when kthread_mod_delayed_work() is called with interrupts disabled.
