      Impact: new timer API
      
      Based on an idea from Martin Josefsson with the help of
      Patrick McHardy and Stephen Hemminger:
      
      introduce the mod_timer_pending() API which is a mod_timer()
      offspring that is an invariant on already removed timers.
      
      (regular mod_timer() re-activates non-pending timers.)
      
      This is useful for the networking code in that it can
      allow unserialized mod_timer_pending() timer-forwarding
      calls, but a single del_timer*() will stop the timer
      from being reactivated again.
      
      Also while at it:
      
      - optimize the regular mod_timer() path some more, the
        timer-stat and a debug check was needlessly duplicated
        in __mod_timer().
      
      - make the exports come straight after the function, as
        most other exports in timer.c already did.
      
      - eliminate __mod_timer() as an external API, change the
        users to mod_timer().
      
      The regular mod_timer() code path is not impacted
      significantly, due to inlining optimizations and due to
      the simplifications.
