The flag main purpose is to avoid race conditions between event handler and cancel_timer(). However, cancel_timer() is safe even without using gSchedulerLock. If the event is scheduled to happen on other CPU than the CPU that invokes cancel_timer() then cancel_timer() either disables the event before its handler starts executing or waits until the event handler is done. If the event is scheduled on the same CPU that calls cancel_timer() then, since cancel_timer() disables interrupts, the event is either executed before cancel_timer() or when the timer interrupt handler starts running the event is already disabled.
