If tick is late then application should be warned about this.
It means that actual timer resolution is worse than expected.
The default timer resolution is set 10ms, that is equal to jiffy
on most systems. The default resolution is set bearing in mind
that on a CPU runs maximum two threads that ideally fits in 10ms.
But user can change it to be smaller, in case if CPU0 is isolated
and it handles only the timer ticks. This patch helps user to set
correct timer resolution.
