   The driver really should handle multiple clients like all other drivers.  That should be a requirement of all drivers so I would personally consider that limitation a bug.
   
   For a single timer, this would be handled by keeping a list of relative timer delays.  This is done, for example, for the wdog dog timers.  See https://github.com/apache/incubator-nuttx/blob/master/sched/wdog/wd_start.c#L226 . The wdog timers can handle an unlimited number of clients with a single timer and with NO additional overhead (at least after the relative delay is calculated).
