lib/timerqueue.c is the time-ordered queue behind hrtimers, POSIX CPU
timers and the alarm timers, and since commit 1339eeb73d6b
("timerqueue: Provide linked timerqueue") it also has a linked variant
that keeps prev/next pointers for hrtimer rearming. Neither has unit
tests.
Add a KUnit suite that covers:
- an empty queue, and timerqueue_iterate_next(NULL);
- timerqueue_add() returning true only when the node becomes the
first, and timerqueue_del() returning true while nodes remain;
- iteration in expiry order, and nodes with the same expiry time
staying in the order they were added;
- a deleted node being queued again;
- 256 nodes with pseudo-random expiry times (fixed seed): order and
count after inserting, deleting from the middle and draining from
the front;
- the linked variant: prev/next links in both directions after
inserts, deletes from the middle and the front, and re-adding; and
the same pseudo-random stress with every prev link checked.
An AI coding assistant (Claude Opus 5.5) was used to draft the tests.
They were run with "tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run" on UML (6/6
pass), built with W=1 without warnings, and checked against
deliberately broken versions of the two comparison functions and of
timerqueue_del()'s return value, which the suite catches.

Tested on UML with a kunitconfig of CONFIG_KUNIT=y and
CONFIG_TIMERQUEUE_KUNIT_TEST=y: 6/6 pass.
