Hi Dave,
I noticed that the "timer" command prints somewhat wrongly for RHEL7.6 or
later kernels (not including RHEL8 / upstream) and found that it is because
struct tvec and tvec_root have an array of list_head, instead of hlist_head
in upstream kernels.
So the following patch looks good only for RHEL7, but I don't know how we
should determine the list type in order to switch the size, etc in this case.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Kazu
