I don't see why not.

But this is no different than what it was before AFAICT.

And if the timer expiry interval on the wrong CPU gets halved, then it'll see
faster that there's no error for it to log and it'll enlarge the interval
again.

So I don't see a problem with that particular scenario.

Or?
