[PATCH 3/3] timers: Omit POSIX timer stuff from task_struct when disabled

From: John Stultz
Date: Fri Jan 27 2017 - 20:09:00 EST


From: Nicolas Pitre <nicolas.pitre@xxxxxxxxxx>

When CONFIG_POSIX_TIMERS is disabled, it is preferable to remove related
structures from struct task_struct and struct signal_struct as they
won't contain anything useful and shouldn't be relied upon by mistake.
Code still referencing those structures is also disabled here.
