    libglusterfs (timer): race conditions, illegal mem access, mem leak

    While investigating gfapi memory consumption with valgrind, valgrind
    reported several memory access issues.

    Also see the timer 'registry' being recreated (shortly) after being
    freed during teardown due to the way it's currently written.

    Passing ctx as data to gf_timer_proc() is prone to memory access
    issues if ctx is freed before gf_timer_proc() terminates. (And in
    fact this does happen, at least in valgrind.) gf_timer_proc() doesn't
    need ctx for anything, it only needs ctx->timer, so just pass that.

    Nothing ever calls gf_timer_registry_init(). Nothing outside of
    timer.c that is. Making it and gf_timer_proc() static.
