In periodic low-resolution mode, hrtimer_run_queues() updates the clock
base offsets at each tick but does not refresh softirq_expires_next.
When CLOCK_REALTIME is moved forward, an expired soft hrtimer can
therefore remain pending until the old monotonic deadline is reached.

Reevaluate the next expiry when hrtimer_update_base() observes a new
clock-was-set sequence, before checking whether to raise HRTIMER_SOFTIRQ.
