Thomas Gleixner 627ef5ae2d hrtimer: Avoid double reprogramming in __hrtimer_start_range_ns()
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.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
