    hrtimer: timeout too long when using HRTIMER_CB_SOFTIRQ · d7b41a24
    Bodo Stroesser authored
    When using hrtimer with timer->cb_mode == HRTIMER_CB_SOFTIRQ
    in some cases the clockevent is not programmed.
    This happens, if:
     - a timer is rearmed while it's state is HRTIMER_STATE_CALLBACK
     - hrtimer_reprogram() returns -ETIME, when it is called after
       CALLBACK is finished. This occurs if the new timer->expires
       is in the past when CALLBACK is done.
    In this case, the timer needs to be removed from the tree and put
    onto the pending list again.
    
    The patch is against 2.6.22.5, but AFAICS, it is relevant
    for 2.6.25 also (in run_hrtimer_pending()).
