timer: Permit statically-declared work with deferrable timers
Currently, you have to just define a delayed_work uninitialised, and then
initialise it before first use. That's a tad clumsy. At risk of playing
mind-games with the compiler, fooling it into doing pointer arithmetic
with compile-time-constants, this lets clients properly initialise delayed
work with deferrable timers statically.
This patch was inspired by the issues which lead Artem Bityutskiy to
commit 8eab945c5616fc984 ("sunrpc: make the cache cleaner workqueue
deferrable").
