Steven Rostedt 48228f7b47 lockdep/timers: Explain in detail the locking problems del_timer_sync() may cause
Twice I had to explain the output about why lockdep gives an error with
locks in IRQ context and with del_timer_sync(). Might as well write it
up and place it in the comments above the code in del_timer_sync().
Perhaps the next time this lockdep dump triggers people will understand
the issues.

It is a ticky issue and very subtle, explaining it in detail in the code
may help others understand the issue when they stumble upon the bug
again.
