We are about to add an additional soft timer to the arch timer state for a VCPU and would like to be able to reuse the functions to program and cancel a timer, so we make them slightly more generic and rename to make it more clear that these functions work on soft timers and not the hardware resource that this code is managing. The armed flag on the timer state is only used to assert a condition, and we don't rely on this assertion in any meaningful way, so we can simply get rid of this flack and slightly reduce complexity.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
