The reason why the alarm handler stays there is the one described
in following commit:

commit c12d22f65b132c56db7b4fdbfd5ddce27d1e9572
Author: Laurent Hardy <laurent.hardy@6wind.com>

    net/ixgbe: ensure link status is updated
    
    In case of fiber and link speed set to 1Gb at peer side (with autoneg
    or with defined speed), link status could be not properly updated at
    time cable is plugged-in.
    Indeed if cable was not plugged when device has been configured and
    started then link status will not be updated properly with new speed
    as no link setup will be triggered.
    
    To avoid this issue, IXGBE_FLAG_NEED_LINK_CONFIG is set to try a link
    setup each time link_update() is triggered and current link status is
    down. When cable is plugged-in, link setup will be performed via
    ixgbe_setup_link().

Does it fixed?
If not, you should not touch the alarm handler or implement a different
workaround.

Best regards, Ilya Maximets.
