Here's a different take. Instead of creating structs and altering function
signatures, we can just make the wake-up times file-global, and we can skip
the changes related to reducing the number of calls to
GetCurrentTimestamp() for now. This results in a far less invasive patch.
(I still think reducing the number of calls to GetCurrentTimestamp() is
worthwhile, but I'm beginning to agree with Bharath that it should be
handled separately.)
Thoughts?
