- Properly cast the input to secs_to_jiffies() to unsigned long as
otherwise the result uses the data type of the input variable, which
causes result range checks to fail if the input data type is signed and
smaller than unsigned long.
- Handle late armed hrtimers gracefully on CPU hotplug
There are legitimate cases where a hrtimer is (re)armed on an outgoing
CPU after the timers have been migrated away. This triggers warnings and
caused people to implement horrible workarounds in RCU. But those work
arounds are incomplete and do not cover e.g. the scheduler hrtimers.
Stop this by force moving timer which are enqueued on the current CPU
after timer migration to be queued on a remote online CPU.
This allows to undo the workarounds in a seperate step.
- Demote a warning level printk() to info level in the clocksource
watchdog code as there is no point to emit a warning level message for a
purely informational message.
- Mark a helper function __always_inline and move it into the existing
#ifdef block to avoid 'unused function' warnings from CLANG
