Subject[PATCH v4 05/16] add_timer_on(): Make sure callers have TIMER_PINNED flag
Date
The implementation of the hierachical timer pull model will change the
timer bases per CPU. Timers, that have to expire on a specific CPU, require
the TIMER_PINNED flag. Otherwise they will be queued on the dedicated CPU
but in global timer base and those timers could also expire on other
CPUs. Timers with TIMER_DEFERRABLE flag end up in a separate base anyway
and are executed on the local CPU only.

Therefore add the missing TIMER_PINNED flag for those callers who use
add_timer_on() without the flag. No functional change.

v4:
- Move patch before local and global base are introduced
- Add missing user (drivers/char/random.c) of add_timer_on() without
TIMER_PINNED flag (kernel test robot)
