/* Software timers
* There is one of these structures for each simulated timer.
* Whenever the timer is running, it is on a doubly-linked list
* pointed to by "timers" so that the (hardware) timer interrupt
* can quickly run through the list and change counts and states.
* Stopping a timer or letting it expire causes it to be removed
* from the list; starting a timer puts it on the list.
