[patch v6 15/20] posix-timers: Handle ignored list on delete and exit
Posted by Thomas Gleixner 3 weeks, 3 days ago
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

To handle posix timer signals on sigaction(SIG_IGN) properly, the timers
will be queued on a separate ignored list.

Add the necessary cleanup code for timer_delete() and exit_itimers().

Ooops. This code path was obviously never reached so that went
unnoticed. Thanks for spotting it!
