-Subject: [PATCH] posix-timers: move rcu out of union
-Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.2/older/patches-5.2.17-rt9.tar.xz
-
-On RT the timer can be preempted while running and therefore we wait
-with timer_wait_for_callback() for the timer to complete (instead of
-busy looping). The RCU-readlock is held to ensure that this posix timer
-is not removed while we wait on it.
-If the timer is removed then it invokes call_rcu() with a pointer that
-is shared with the hrtimer because it is part of the same union.
-In order to avoid any possible side effects I am moving the rcu pointer
-out of the union.
