clockevents: Stop unused clockevent devices
To avoid getting spurious interrupts on a tickless CPU, clockevent device can now be stopped by switching to ONESHOT_STOPPED state. The natural place for handling this transition is tick_program_event(). On 'expires == KTIME_MAX', we skip programming the event and so we need to fix such call sites as well, to always call tick_program_event() irrespective of the expires value. Once the clockevent device is required again, check if it was earlier put into ONESHOT_STOPPED state. If yes, switch its state to ONESHOT before programming its event. To make sure we haven't missed any corner case, add a WARN() for the case where we try to reprogram clockevent device while we aren't configured in ONESHOT_STOPPED state.
