Subject[PATCH Resend] hrtimer: call switch_hrtimer_base() after setting new expiry time
Date
In switch_hrtimer_base() we are calling hrtimer_check_target() which guarantees
this:

/*
* With HIGHRES=y we do not migrate the timer when it is expiring
* before the next event on the target cpu because we cannot reprogram
* the target cpu hardware and we would cause it to fire late.
*
* Called with cpu_base->lock of target cpu held.
*/

But switch_hrtimer_base() is only called from one place, i.e.
__hrtimer_start_range_ns() and at that point (where we call
switch_hrtimer_base()) expiration time is not yet known as we call this routine
later: hrtimer_set_expires_range_ns().

To fix this, we need to find the updated expiry time before calling
switch_hrtimer_base().
