[patch 07/12] alarmtimer: Provide alarmtimer_start()

[Thomas Gleixner <tglx@kernel.org>]

Alarm timers utilize hrtimers for normal operation and only switch to the
RTC on suspend. In order to catch already expired timers early and without
going through a timer interrupt cycle, provide a new start function which
internally uses hrtimer_start_range_ns_user().

If hrtimer_start_range_ns_user() detects an already expired timer, it does
not queue it. In that case remove the timer from the alarm base as well.

Return the status queued or not back to the caller to handle the early
expiry.
