I believe the firing midway through a command has no relation to your
stability issue, and removing the timer is certainly not a solution
(and especially not commenting out code, comments are not meant for
disabling code). In my experience the timeout was caused by two timers
being created instead of one - this should be fixed by the patches
already present in bugzilla.

Afterall the timer just adds the command at the end of the queue and
gives it 30 seconds to finish, this should be enough even when gsmd is
very busy.
