In preparation for unconditionally passing the struct timer_list pointer to
all timer callbacks, switch to using the new timer_setup() and from_timer()
to pass the timer pointer explicitly. This requires adding a pointer back
to the sta_info since container_of() can't resolve the sta_info.

This requires commit 686fef928bba ("timer: Prepare to change timer
callback argument type") in v4.14-rc3, but should be otherwise

The subject seems to be lacking something ... :-)

I still can't apply that because that's not in net-next right now.

Wouldn't it be better to convert this to timer_setup() now?

That add_timer() should probably also be mod_timer() anyway?

You just have to make mesh_plink_timer() non-static, put a prototype
into mesh.h and then you can use the proper timer_setup() here with the
function?

Also, the sta->mesh->plink_sta assignment should be here I'd say, no
point rewriting it all the time.

I guess you were shooting for minimal, and I suppose we can do the
cleanups later too ...

Oh wonderful, all the subjects are cut off. *sigh* I wonder which
piece of my workflow broke that...

Okay, I'll see if Dave brings that into net-next and resend after that.

The problem is that plink_timer is used in several places, and it's
originally initialized in net/mac80211/sta_info.c. The call to
mesh_plink_timer_set() does an update of the function field, so it
didn't look like it could get merged with the timer_setup(), but in
looking again, it seems that this is the _only_ update to
plink_timer.function, so it could probably get collapsed into the
timer_setup() call.

> That add_timer() should probably also be mod_timer() anyway?

Agreed. I'd avoided making those changes in most places, but I can do it here.

Sounds good. I'll get it cleaned up.
