hrtimer: Add clock bases and hrtimer mode for softirq context
Currently hrtimer callback functions are always executed in hard interrupt context. Users of hrtimers, which need their timer function to be executed in soft interrupt context, make use of tasklets to get the proper context. Add additional hrtimer clock bases for timers which must expire in softirq context, so the detour via the tasklet can be avoided. This is also required for RT, where the majority of hrtimer is moved into softirq hrtimer context. The selection of the expiry mode happens via a mode bit. Introduce HRTIMER_MODE_SOFT and the matching combinations with the ABS/REL/PINNED bits and update the decoding of hrtimer_mode in tracepoints.
