Subject: [RFC PATCH 05/10] timers: Always keep track of next expiry
Date:   Wed,  1 Jul 2020 03:10:25 +0200

Precedence: bulk

So far next expiry was only tracked while the CPU was in nohz_idle mode
in order to cope with missing ticks that can't increment the base->clk
periodically anymore.

We are going to expand that logic beyond nohz in order to spare timers
softirqs so do it unconditionally.
