Subject: [PATCH] linux/wait: Fix __wait_event_hrtimeout for RT/DL tasks

Changes to hrtimer mode (potentially made by __hrtimer_init_sleeper on
PREEMPT_RT) are not visible to hrtimer_start_range_ns, thus not
accounted for by hrtimer_start_expires call paths. In particular,
__wait_event_hrtimeout suffers from this problem as we have, for
example:

fs/aio.c::read_events
  wait_event_interruptible_hrtimeout
    __wait_event_hrtimeout
      hrtimer_init_sleeper_on_stack <- this might "mode |= HRTIMER_MODE_HARD"
                                       on RT if task runs at RT/DL priority
        hrtimer_start_range_ns
          WARN_ON_ONCE(!(mode & HRTIMER_MODE_HARD) ^ !timer->is_hard)
          fires since the latter doesn't see the change of mode done by
          init_sleeper

Fix it by making __wait_event_hrtimeout call hrtimer_sleeper_start_expires,
which is aware of the special RT/DL case, instead of hrtimer_start_range_ns.
