The recent rework of the posix timer internals broke the magic posix mechanism, which requires that relative timers are not affected by modifications of the underlying clock. That means relative CLOCK_REALTIME timers cannot use CLOCK_REALTIME, because that can be set and adjusted. The underlying hrtimer switches the clock for these timers to CLOCK_MONOTONIC. That still works, but reading the remaining time of such a timer has been broken in the rework. The old code used the hrtimer internals directly and avoided the posix clock callbacks. Now common_timer_get() uses the underlying kclock->timer_get() callback, which is still CLOCK_REALTIME based. So the remaining time of such a timer is calculated against the wrong time base. Handle it by switching the k_itimer->kclock pointer according to the resulting hrtimer mode. k_itimer->it_clock still contains CLOCK_REALTIME because the timer might be set with ABSTIME later and then it needs to switch back to the realtime posix clock implementation.

The recent posix timer rework moved the clearing of the itimerspec to the real syscall implementation, but forgot that the kclock->timer_get() is used by timer_settime() as well. That results in an uninitialized variable and bogus values returned to user space. Add the missing memset to timer_settime().

The refactoring of the posix-timer core to allow better code sharing introduced inverted logic vs. SIGEV_NONE timers in common_timer_get(). That causes hrtimer_forward() to be called on active timers, which rightfully triggers the warning hrtimer_forward(). Make sig_none what it says: signal mode == SIGEV_NONE.

The only user of this facility is ptp_clock, which does not implement any of those functions. Remove them to prevent accidental users. Especially the interval timer interfaces are now more or less impossible to implement because the necessary infrastructure has been confined to the core code. Aside of that it's really complex to make these callbacks implemented according to spec as the alarm timer implementation demonstrates. If at all then a nanosleep callback might be a reasonable extension. For now keep just what ptp_clock needs.

The alarmtimer code has another source of potentially rearming itself too fast. Interval timers with a very samll interval have a similar CPU hog effect as the previously fixed overflow issue. The reason is that alarmtimers do not implement the normal protection against this kind of problem which the other posix timer use: timer expires -> queue signal -> deliver signal -> rearm timer This scheme brings the rearming under scheduler control and prevents permanently firing timers which hog the CPU. Bringing this scheme to the alarm timer code is a major overhaul because it lacks all the necessary mechanisms completely. So for a quick fix limit the interval to one jiffie. This is not problematic in practice as alarmtimers are usually backed by an RTC for suspend which have 1 second resolution. It could be therefor argued that the resolution of this clock should be set to 1 second in general, but that's outside the scope of this fix.

Andrey reported a alartimer related RCU stall while fuzzing the kernel with syzkaller. The reason for this is an overflow in ktime_add() which brings the resulting time into negative space and causes immediate expiry of the timer. The following rearm with a small interval does not bring the timer back into positive space due to the same issue. This results in a permanent firing alarmtimer which hogs the CPU. Use ktime_add_safe() instead which detects the overflow and clamps the result to KTIME_SEC_MAX.
