timer/trace: Improve timer tracing Timers are added to the timer wheel off by one. This is required in case a timer is queued directly before incrementing jiffies to prevent early timer expiry. When reading a timer trace and relying only on the expiry time of the timer in the timer_start trace point and on the now in the timer_expiry_entry trace point, it seems that the timer fires late. With the current timer_expiry_entry trace point information only now=jiffies is printed but not the value of base->clk. This makes it impossible to draw a conclusion to the index of base->clk and makes it impossible to examine timer problems without additional trace points. Therefore add the base->clk value to the timer_expire_entry trace point, to be able to calculate the index the timer base is located at during collecting expired timers.
