[PATCH 11/12] hrtimer: Mark the hrtimer_sleeper structure's ->task field __private
From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Fri Sep 18 2026 - 20:20:25 EST
The hrtimer_sleeper structure's ->task field is now used only by the
hrtimer_sleeper_task_get() and hrtimer_sleeper_task_set() functions,
and there is no reason for it to be directly accessed anywhere else.
Therefore, mark this field __private and use ACCESS_PRIVATE() in
hrtimer_sleeper_task_get() and hrtimer_sleeper_task_set().
