Local fix

Problem summary

  • Machine crash and in KDB.
    

Problem conclusion

  • we are cancelling the timer request but we are not checking
    the return code as opposed to taking the approrpiate action in
    case of failure.Moreover as we are using the lock, lock shoul
    d be released ,a delay should be added and then the lock shoul
    d be reacquired .In a multiprocessor environment, the timer
    function associated with a timer request block may be active
    on another processor when the tstop kernel service is called.
    In case, the timer request cannot be canceled,A multiprocessor
    -safe driver must therefore check the return code and take
    appropriate action if the cancel request failed.
