Note that this would prevent ipv4 from being hacked into being
modular, but there are no plans at all to make modular ipv4 for 2.6.x
at all so this is a valid transformation/cleanup.
kernel/timer.c's main data structures desperately want to be per-cpu
or allocated at boot time also. It, as has been noted often on this
list, is actually more bloat than the ipv4 statistics stuff. :-)
