powerpc/time: Remove unnecessary sanity check of decrementer expiration
The clockevents code uses max_delta_ns to avoid calling a clockevent with too large a value. Remove the redundant version of this in the timer_interrupt code. Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
