[PATCH] Extend next_timer_interrupt() to use a reference jiffie
For CONFIG_NO_HZ we need to calculate the next timer wheel event based on a
given jiffie value. Extend the existing code to allow the extra 'now'
argument. Provide a compability function for the existing implementations to
call the function with now == jiffies. (This also solves the racyness of the
original code vs. jiffies changing during the iteration.)
No functional changes to existing users of this infrastructure.
