Spawing ksoftirqd, migration, or watchdog, and calling init_timers_cpu() may fail with small memory. If it happens in initcalls, kernel NULL pointer dereference happens later. This patch makes crash happen immediately in such cases. It seems a bit better than getting kernel NULL pointer dereference later.
