timerfd: Handle relative timers with CONFIG_TIME_LOW_RES proper
Helge reported that a relative timer can return a remaining time larger than the programmed relative time on parisc and other architectures which have CONFIG_TIME_LOW_RES set. This happens because we add a jiffie to the resulting expiry time to prevent short timeouts. Use the new function hrtimer_expires_remaining_adjusted() to calculate the remaining time. It takes that extra added time into account for relative timers.
