> 
> If the lcore that is stopping the timer is different from the lcore that owns the
> timer, the timer list lock is acquired in timer_del(), even if local_is_locked is
> true. Because the same lock was already acquired in rte_timer_stop_all(),
> the thread will hang.

> This patch removes the acquisition of nested lock.
