From a16a1c095a2392d49fafea22f3a508e268ef7167 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Wed, 1 Feb 2006 03:05:09 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] hrtimers: fix oldvalue return in setitimer This resolves bugzilla bug#5617. The oldvalue of the timer was read after the timer was cancelled, so the remaining time was always zero.
