Subject: [PATCH] hrtimer: Use raw_cpu_ptr() in clock_was_set()

clock_was_set() can be invoked from preemptible context. Use raw_cpu_ptr()
to check whether high resolution mode is active or not. It does not matter
whether the task migrates after acquiring the pointer.

Fixes: e71a4153b7c2 ("hrtimer: Force clock_was_set() handling for the HIGHRES=n, NOHZ=y case")
