Subject[PATCH] posix-timers: CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW: fix the usage of ->it_clock
(compile tested)

common_timer_create() and common_timer_set() blindly pass ->it_clock to
hrtimer_init() as clock_id. This used to work until CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW
was introduced, now we should be careful.

Perhaps it makes sense to add BUG_ON(clock_id >= HRTIMER_MAX_CLOCK_BASES)
to __hrtimer_init(), the wrong clock_id leads to catastrophe.
