Variable localisation not needed.

Variable defs can be localised to the if (enabled) (even though now
in original code doesn't do that).

This comment is now out of place.

Why do you update the delta here?
Also can you just get ptimer_reload to do the modulo math for you? If the
timer is !oneshot and expired, then you call ptimer_reload anyway,
which will update next_event. When the expired test returns false
you can just reliably use the original logic involving now and next.

This if-else has a lot of common structure with the one above. I think
they could be merged.
