Linux kernel source tree
In order to make sure that a timer is not re-armed after it is stopped before freeing, a new shutdown state is added to the timer code. The API timer_shutdown_sync() and timer_shutdown() must be called before the object that holds the timer can be freed. Update the documentation to reflect this new workflow.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
