Indeed.
So I can't seem to come up with a pretty solution :-(
The 'problem' is creating a periodic timer that can stop when there's no
work left and ensuring (re)start doesn't get lost or looses overruns.
The problem with the current code is that the re-start can come before
the callback does fwd, at which point the fwd will spew the above
warning (rightly so).
Now, conceptually its easy to detect if you're before or after the fwd
by comparing the expiration time against the current time. Of course,
that's expensive (and racy) because we don't have the current time.
Alternatively one could cache this state inside the timer, but then
everybody pays the overhead of maintaining this extra state, and that is
undesired.
The only other option that I could see is the external timer_active
variable, which I tried to kill before.
So I suppose the below (compile tested) patch should fix things, but
seeing how I've been up since 4am I might just have missed something
obvious :-)
