   # HEAD: da65f29dada7f7cbbf0d6375b88a0316f5f7d6f5 timers: Fix nextevt calculation when no timers are pending

Timer subsystem changes for v6.8:

 - Various preparatory cleanups & enhancements of the timer-wheel code,
   in preparation for the WIP 'pull timers at expiry' timer migration model
   series (which will replace the current 'push timers at enqueue' migration
   model), by Anna-Maria Behnsen:

      - Update comments and clean up confusing variable names

      - Add debug check to warn about time travel

      - Improve/expand timer-wheel tracepoints

      - Optimize away unnecessary IPIs for deferrable timers

      - Restructure & clean up next_expiry_recalc()

      - Clean up forward_timer_base()

      - Introduce __forward_timer_base() and use it to simplify
        and micro-optimize get_next_timer_interrupt()

 - Restructure the get_next_timer_interrupt()'s idle logic
   for better readability and to enable a minor optimization.

 - Fix the nextevt calculation when no timers are pending

 - Fix the sysfs_get_uname() prototype declaration

 Thanks,

	Ingo
