This was unexported by Arjan because we have no current users.
However, during a conversion from tasklets to workqueues of the parisc
led functions, we ran across a case where this was needed. In
particular, the open coded equivalent of
cancel_rearming_delayed_workqueue was implemented incorrectly, which is,
I think, all the evidence necessary that this is a useful API.
