+                        * avoid softirq starvation in case of SIG_IGN
+                        * and a very small interval, which would put

+                        * list. By moving now ahead of time we trick
+                        * hrtimer_forward() to expire the timer
+                        * later, while we still maintain the overrun
+                        * accuracy, but have some inconsistency in
+                        * the timer_gettime() case. This is at least
+                        * better than a starved softirq. A more
+                        * complex fix which solves also another related
