Thomas Gleixner 63070a79ba hrtimer: catch expired CLOCK_REALTIME timers early ...

A CLOCK_REALTIME timer, which has an absolute expiry time less than
the clock realtime offset calls with a negative delta into the clock
events code and triggers the WARN_ON() there.

This is a false positive and needs to be prevented. Check the result
of timer->expires - timer->base->offset right away and return -ETIME
right away.

Thanks to Frans Pop, who reported the problem and tested the fixes.
