Subject: [PATCH 290/353] KVM: arm/arm64: Let the timer expire in hardirq
 context on RT
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git/commit?id=c9aa362f5217dc131c6a06777ead7f0fa6f24cd5

[ Upstream commit 719cc080c914045a6e35787bf4dc3ba91cfd3efb ]

The timers are canceled from an preempt-notifier which is invoked with
disabled preemption which is not allowed on PREEMPT_RT.
The timer callback is short so in could be invoked in hard-IRQ context
on -RT.

Let the timer expire on hard-IRQ context even on -RT.
