In those cases it is desired to shutdown the timer in a way which prevents rearming of the timer. The mechanism to do so is to set timer->function to NULL and use this as an indicator for the timer arming functions to ignore the (re)arm request. In preparation for that replace the warnings in the relevant code paths with checks for timer->function == NULL. If the pointer is NULL, then discard the rearm request silently. Add debug_assert_init() instead of the WARN_ON_ONCE(!timer->function) checks so that debug objects can warn about non-initialized timers. The warning of debug objects does not warn if timer->function == NULL. It warns when timer was not initialized using timer_setup[_on_stack]() or via DEFINE_TIMER(). If developers fail to enable debug objects and then waste lots of time to figure out why their non-initialized timer is not firing, they deserve it. Same for initializing a timer with a NULL function.
