You should make one patch which atleast fix one file at ones. It would
be even better if it fixes whole stuff (example one driver) right a way.
Also note that you should not but this kind messages to your patch
message. If you want to note this kind of thing you can use --- and
after that it will not included in patch itself. You can read it online
more.
Also where does this [PATCH 8455/8455] even come from? Good thing is
that you really didn't send so many patches or atleast I won't see them.
And it seems that you are new so welcome a board :)

Just:
/* timer handler functions */
would be simpler.
And the code is mostly a horror to read.
