Use del_timer_sync to ensure that the timer is stopped on all CPUs before
the driver exists.This change was suggested by Thomas Gleixner.
The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:

Conflicts:
drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c
drivers/net/wireless/mwifiex/pcie.c
net/ipv6/sit.cThe SIT driver conflict consists of a bug fix being done by hand
in 'net' (missing u64_stats_init()) whilst in 'net-next' a helper
was created (netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats()) which takes care of this.The two wireless conflicts were overlapping changes.

This is a sanity check and we never pass invalid values so this patch
doesn't change anything. However the node->time_in[] array has
HSR_MAX_SLAVE (2) elements and not HSR_MAX_DEV (3).Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter

Register generic netlink multicast groups as an array with
the family and give them contiguous group IDs. Then instead
of passing the global group ID to the various functions that
send messages, pass the ID relative to the family - for most
families that's just 0 because the only have one group.This avoids the list_head and ID in each group, adding a new
field for the mcast group ID offset to the family.At the same time, this allows us to prevent abusing groups
again like the quota and dropmon code did, since we can now
check that a family only uses a group it owns.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

This doesn't really change anything, but prepares for the
next patch that will change the APIs to pass the group ID
within the family, rather than the global group ID.Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops()
a macro and pass only the array, evaluating ARRAY_SIZE() in the
macro, this is a little safer.The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in
that code. This might ultimately just assign the pointers in the
family initializations, saving the struct genl_family_and_ops and
code (once mcast groups are handled differently.)Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg

Now that genl_ops are no longer modified in place when
registering, they can be made const. This patch was done
mostly with spatch:@@

High-availability Seamless Redundancy ("HSR") provides instant failover
redundancy for Ethernet networks. It requires a special network topology where
all nodes are connected in a ring (each node having two physical network
interfaces). It is suited for applications that demand high availability and
very short reaction time.HSR acts on the Ethernet layer, using a registered Ethernet protocol type to
send special HSR frames in both directions over the ring. The driver creates
virtual network interfaces that can be used just like any ordinary Linux
network interface, for IP/TCP/UDP traffic etc. All nodes in the network ring
must be HSR capable.This code is a "best effort" to comply with the HSR standard as described in
IEC 62439-3:2010 (HSRv0).Signed-off-by: Arvid Brodin
