This is a simple module to start a hrtimer about 20k times a second. I
don't see a way to correctly restart a hrtimer or set one to be periodic
so this is inefficiently bouncing between two timers. Calling
restart_hrtimer() from within the hrtimer.function causes a panic. I was
wondering what the correct method would be.
I had to export some symbols from hrtimer.c so I could build this as a
module.
