In switch_hrtimer_base() we are calling hrtimer_check_target() which guarantees this:
/* * With HIGHRES=y we do not migrate the timer when it is expiring * before the next event on the target cpu because we cannot reprogram * the target cpu hardware and we would cause it to fire late. * * Called with cpu_base->lock of target cpu held. */
But switch_hrtimer_base() is only called from one place, i.e. __hrtimer_start_range_ns() and at that point (where we call switch_hrtimer_base()) expiration time is not yet known as we call this routine later: hrtimer_set_expires_range_ns().
To fix this, we need to find the updated expiry time before calling switch_hrtimer_base().
