hrtimer: Set expiry time before switch_hrtimer_base()
switch_hrtimer_base() calls hrtimer_check_target() which ensures that we do not migrate a timer to a remote cpu if the timer expires before the current programmed expiry time on that remote cpu. But __hrtimer_start_range_ns() calls switch_hrtimer_base() before the new expiry time is set. So the sanity check in hrtimer_check_target() is operating on stale or even uninitialized data. Update expiry time before calling switch_hrtimer_base().
