- There's still a bug in the new timer code.  If you think you hit it,
please revert
	timers-fixes-improvements-fix.patch			then
	timers-fixes-improvements-smp_processor_id-fix.patch	then
	timers-fixes-improvements.patch

  or, better, fix the bug.

FWIW, I can reproduce this timer bug fairly consistently, by simply rebooting my cisco router. That means that my linux box has no default gateway, and hence the networking blows up within about 30s and dies with a stack trace which has references to timers.

I'll back out those three patches and see if it continues, but hopefully my little discovery is useful to someone in terms of coming up with a fix....

Box is an Intel 2.8/SMP
