The TIMER_IRQSAFE was introduced in commit
22597dc3d97b1 ("kthread: initial support for delayed kthread work")
which modelled the delayed kthread code after workqueue's code. The
workqueue code requires the flag TIMER_IRQSAFE for synchronisation
purpose. This is not true for kthread's delay timer since all
operations occur under a lock.
Remove TIMER_IRQSAFE from the timer initialisation.
Use timer_setup() for initialisation purpose which is the official
function.
