hrtimer, softirq: Fix hrtimer->softirq trampoline

hrtimers callbacks are always done from hardirq context, either the
jiffy tick interrupt or the hrtimer device interrupt.

[ there is currently one exception that can still call a hrtimer
  callback from softirq, but even in that case this will still
  work correctly. ]
