Subject: alarmtimers: Add try_to_cancel functionality
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9082c465a5403f4a98734193e078552991a2e283;p=linux-beck.git

alarmtimers: Add try_to_cancel functionality

There's a number of edge cases when cancelling a alarm, so
to be sure we accurately do so, introduce try_to_cancel, which
returns proper failure errors if it cannot. Also modify cancel
to spin until the alarm is properly disabled.
