Replace my previous patch with equivalent fix from linux-2.6.17.
Might as well stay as close to that as we can...

-+ * If timers are pending, "expires" will be in the recent past

-+ * So we must check when there are pending timers (expires <= jiffies)

-+ * nothing scheduled until half an epoch (MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET)!
++ * It can happen that other CPUs service timer IRQs and increment
++ * jiffies, but we have not yet got a local timer tick to process
++ * the timer wheels. In that case, the expiry time can be before
++ * jiffies, but since the high-resolution timer here is relative to
++ * jiffies, the default expression when high-resolution timers are
++ * not active,
++ *
++ * time_before(MAX_JIFFY_OFFSET + jiffies, expires)
++ *
++ * would falsely evaluate to true. If that is the case, just
++ * return jiffies so that we can immediately fire the local timer
