While rebasing rvkms I noticed that timers I was setting seemed to have
pretty random timer values that amounted slightly over 2x the time value I
set each time. After a lot of debugging, I finally managed to figure out
why: it seems that since we moved to Instant and Delta, we mistakenly
began passing the clocksource ID to hrtimer_start_range_ns, when we should
be passing the timer mode instead. Presumably, this works fine for simple
relative timers - but immediately breaks on other types of timers.
So, fix this by passing the ID for the timer mode instead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
