[ Upstream commit 8c3b5e6ec0fee18bc2ce38d1dfe913413205f908 ]

If high resolution timers are disabled the timerfd notification about a
clock was set event is not happening for all cases which use
clock_was_set_delayed() because that's a NOP for HIGHRES=n, which is wrong.

Make clock_was_set_delayed() unconditially available to fix that.

<id>urn:sha1:77f3efdd7bfd91881464cb759af4e066a9f1189a</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 627ef5ae2df8eeccb20d5af0e4cfa4df9e61ed28 ]

If __hrtimer_start_range_ns() is invoked with an already armed hrtimer then
the timer has to be canceled first and then added back. If the timer is the
first expiring timer then on removal the clockevent device is reprogrammed
to the next expiring timer to avoid that the pending expiry fires needlessly.

If the new expiry time ends up to be the first expiry again then the clock
event device has to reprogrammed again.

Avoid this by checking whether the timer is the first to expire and in that
case, keep the timer on the current CPU and delay the reprogramming up to
the point where the timer has been enqueued again.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner:
 "The time and timers updates contain:

  Core changes:

   - Allow runtime power management when the clocksource is changed.

   - A correctness fix for clock_adjtime32() so that the return value on
     success is not overwritten by the result of the copy to user.

   - Allow late installment of broadcast clockevent devices which was
     broken because nothing switched them over to oneshot mode. This
     went unnoticed so far because clockevent devices used to be built
     in, but now people started to make them modular.

   - Debugfs related simplifications

   - Small cleanups and improvements here and there

  Driver changes:

   - The usual set of device tree binding updates for a wide range of
     drivers/devices.

   - The usual updates and improvements for drivers all over the place
     but nothing outstanding.

   - No new clocksource/event drivers. They'll come back next time"

<title>hrtimer: Update softirq_expires_next correctly after __hrtimer_get_next_event()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:46eb1701c046cc18c032fa68f3c8ccbf24483ee4</id>
<content type='text'>
hrtimer_force_reprogram() and hrtimer_interrupt() invokes
__hrtimer_get_next_event() to find the earliest expiry time of hrtimer
bases. __hrtimer_get_next_event() does not update
cpu_base::[softirq_]_expires_next to preserve reprogramming logic. That
needs to be done at the callsites.

hrtimer_force_reprogram() updates cpu_base::softirq_expires_next only when
the first expiring timer is a softirq timer and the soft interrupt is not
activated. That's wrong because cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is left
stale when the first expiring timer of all bases is a timer which expires
in hard interrupt context. hrtimer_interrupt() does never update
cpu_base::softirq_expires_next which is wrong too.

That becomes a problem when clock_settime() sets CLOCK_REALTIME forward and
the first soft expiring timer is in the CLOCK_REALTIME_SOFT base. Setting
CLOCK_REALTIME forward moves the clock MONOTONIC based expiry time of that
timer before the stale cpu_base::softirq_expires_next.

cpu_base::softirq_expires_next is cached to make the check for raising the
soft interrupt fast. In the above case the soft interrupt won't be raised
until clock monotonic reaches the stale cpu_base::softirq_expires_next
value. That's incorrect, but what's worse it that if the softirq timer
becomes the first expiring timer of all clock bases after the hard expiry
timer has been handled the reprogramming of the clockevent from
hrtimer_interrupt() will result in an interrupt storm. That happens because
the reprogramming does not use cpu_base::softirq_expires_next, it uses
__hrtimer_get_next_event() which returns the actual expiry time. Once clock
MONOTONIC reaches cpu_base::softirq_expires_next the soft interrupt is
raised and the storm subsides.

Change the logic in hrtimer_force_reprogram() to evaluate the soft and hard
bases seperately, update softirq_expires_next and handle the case when a
soft expiring timer is the first of all bases by comparing the expiry times
and updating the required cpu base fields. Split this functionality into a
separate function to be able to use it in hrtimer_interrupt() as well
without copy paste.

The hrtimer_get_remaining() markup is documenting, instead,
__hrtimer_get_remaining(), as it is placed at the C file.

In order to properly document it, a kernel-doc markup is needed together
with the function prototype. So, add a new one, while preserving the
existing one, just fixing the function name.

The hrtimer_is_queued prototype has a typo: it is using
'=' instead of '-' to split: identifier - description
as required by kernel-doc markup.
