Roman Zippel pointed out that the missing lower limit of intervals
leads to an accounting error in the overrun count. Enforce the lower
limit of intervals to resolution in the timer forwarding code.

Change the storage format of the per base resolution to ktime_t to
make it easier accessible in the hrtimers code.
Change the resolution from (NSEC_PER_SEC/HZ) to TICK_NSEC as Roman
pointed out. TICK_NSEC is closer to the real resolution.

The list_head in the hrtimer structure was introduced for easy access
to the first timer with the further extensions of real high resolution
timers in mind, but it turned out in the course of development that
it is not necessary for the standard use case. Remove the list head
and access the first expiry timer by a datafield in the timer base.

This series removes the getnstimestamp() function from kernel/time.c in favor
of kernel/hrtimer.c's ktime_get_ts() function which currently does exactly the
same thing: retrieves a high-resolution (ns) timespec structure and performs
the wall_to_monotonic adjustment.
This patch:
Export ktime_get_ts() to be used as a timestamp function since it uses
getnstimefoday() and does the wall_to_monotonic adjustment.

interrupt, but is otherwise not utilized by any other subsystem yet.
