+Subject: tick/common: Align tick period during sched_timer setup
+
+From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
+
+commit 13bb06f8dd42071cb9a49f6e21099eea05d4b856 upstream.
+
+The tick period is aligned very early while the first clock_event_device is
+registered. At that point the system runs in periodic mode and switches
+later to one-shot mode if possible.
+
+The next wake-up event is programmed based on the aligned value
+(tick_next_period) but the delta value, that is used to program the
+clock_event_device, is computed based on ktime_get().
+
+With the subtracted offset, the device fires earlier than the exact time
+frame. With a large enough offset the system programs the timer for the
+next wake-up and the remaining time left is too small to make any boot
+progress. The system hangs.
+
+Move the alignment later to the setup of tick_sched timer. At this point
+the system switches to oneshot mode and a high resolution clocksource is
+available. At this point it is safe to align tick_next_period because
+ktime_get() will now return accurate (not jiffies based) time.
+
+[bigeasy: Patch description + testing].
+
