time: Fix adjustment cleanup bug in timekeeping_adjust()
Tetsuo Handa reported that sporadically the system clock starts counting up too quickly which is enough to confuse the hangcheck timer to print a bogus stall warning. Commit 2a8c0883 "time: Move xtime_nsec adjustment underflow handling timekeeping_adjust" overlooked this exit path: } else return; which should really be a proper exit sequence, fixing the bug as a side effect. Also make the flow more readable by properly balancing curly braces.
