tick: Make sure tick timer is active when bypassing reprogramming So far we have run into too much troubles with the optimization path that skips reprogramming the clock on IRQ exit when the expiration deadline hasn't changed. If by accident the cached deadline happens to be out of sync with the hardware deadline, the buggy result and its cause are hard to investigate. So lets detect and warn about the issue early.
