Subject: [patch 3/8] posix-timers: Move posixtimer_exec_cleanup() out of exec.c
Date: Fri, 04 Sep 2026 13:22:31 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260904112202.182757867@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260904112100.683893401@kernel.org>
Move it to the POSIX timer code and provide a proper stub when POSIX timers
are disabled in Kconfig.
No functional change.
