Why no synchronize_rcu() here? This can be called from ondemand
governor on sampling-rate updates ..

How are we sure that the irq-work can't be pending at this point of
time, which will queue the above works again ?

And why is this required exactly ? Maybe a comment as well to clarify
this as this isn't obvious ?

Perhaps, the delay = 0 can be dropped now and ...

^^ can be moved to the else part of above block ..

Why is taking this lock important here ?

Also I failed to understand why we need time_stamp variable at all?
Why can't we use last_sample_time ?

You don't need to a complete update here, the pointers are all fine.
