Introduce a new timer for the use case where a UE should not be
scheduled anymore after a certain time. This is the case, for instance,
during handover, where the "source DU" forwards the RRCReconfiguration
and should stop scheduling this UE after some time.
Originally, transm_interrupt was introduced in 5c6d90aaff ("Use
NR_timer_t for UE transmission interrupt, e.g., RRC processing") to stop
scheduling a UE.
Commit 004403c84d ("Implement F1 UE Ctxt Modif Transmission Action
Indicator") reused this timer in an attempt to save code with an
"interrupt follow action".
In commit 89ebbb4192 ("Do not trigger ul failure in measgap scheduling
and standardize the verification if MAC is active in other scheduling
functions"), the transm_interrupt timer is used to not schedule a UE
through function nr_mac_ue_is_active(). This led to the UE not being
forwarded the RRCReconfiguration, effectively breaking handover, as the
message never reaches the UE. By using a new timer, the intended
functionality is restored.
Fixes: 89ebbb4192 ("Do not trigger ul failure in measgap scheduling
and standardize the verification if MAC is active in other
scheduling functions")
