os: Fix timer race conditions
Fixing following kind of race-conditions -
WaitForSomething()
|
----> // timers -> timer-1 -> timer-2 -> null
while (timers && (int) (timers->expires - now) <= 0)
// prototype - DoTimer(OsTimerPtr timer, CARD32 now,
OsTimerPtr *prev)
DoTimer(timers, now, &timers)
|
|
----> OsBlockSignals(); .... OS Signal comes just before
blocking it,
.... timer-1 handler gets called.
// timer-1 gets served and
scheduled again;
// timers -> timer-2 ->
timer-1 -> null
....
*prev = timer->next;
timer->next = NULL; // timers -> null
// timers list gets corrupted here and timer-2 gets
removed from list.
