According to the new timer statistics, many of the
timers that expire come from schedule_timeout.
Since the regular timer infrastructure is optimized
for timers that don't expire, this might be a useful
optimization.
This also changes the timer stats to show the caller
of schedule_timeout in the statistics rather than
schedule_timeout itself.
BUG: converting between jiffies and ktime is rather
inefficient here.
