Peter Zijlstra a6037b61c2 hrtimer: fix recursion deadlock by re-introducing the softirq ...

Impact: fix rare runtime deadlock

There are a few sites that do:

  spin_lock_irq(&foo)
  hrtimer_start(&bar)
    __run_hrtimer(&bar)
      func()
        spin_lock(&foo)

which obviously deadlocks. In order to avoid this, never call __run_hrtimer()
from hrtimer_start*() context, but instead defer this to softirq context.
