[PATCH] hrtimers remove data field

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Sun Mar 12 2006 - 12:07:29 EST


From: Roman Zippel <zippel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The nanosleep cleanup allows to remove the data field of hrtimer. The
callback function can use container_of() to get it's own data. Since
the hrtimer structure is anyway embedded in other structures, this adds
no overhead.
