Subject: [PATCH] hres_timers_resume must block interrupts
Retrigger_next_event() must be called with interrupts disabled.
All internal (to hrtimer.c) uses of retrigger_next_event() are correct.
But the version exported to other files, hres_timers_resume(), does not
do the IRQ blocking, nor does the (single) external caller of it.
Rather than require that users of hres_timers_resume() do the IRQ blocking,
this patch makes the blocking part of the hres_timers_resume() functionality.
(Also remove the meaningless WARN_ON_ONCE() call in hres_timers_resume)
