[patch 09/11] posix-timers: Fixup stale commnt and reduce ifdeffery

[Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>]

When chasing all invocations of hrtimer_forward() the comment in
posix_timer_fn() turned out to be stale and misleading.

When it was written there was an idea floating around to actually let
periodic posix timers which fail signal delivery due to SIG_IGN not rearm
the underlying hrtimer and restart the timer when SIG_IGN is lifted. In
principle a good idea, but all implementation attempts ended in creating
more problems than they solved. But the comment was left around and
suggests for 14 years now that this is going to be fixed soonish.

Rewrite it to reflect reality and replace the ifdeffery close to it with
IS_ENABLED().
