Ktimer / -rt9 (+custom) monotonic_clock going backwards.

Hi Thomas,

I switched my custom kernel timer to use the ktimers with the prio of -1
as you mentioned to me offline.  I set up the timer to be monotonic and
have a requirement that the returned time is always greater or equal to
the last time returned from do_get_ktime_mono.

Now here's the results that I got between two calls of do_get_ktime_mono

358.069795728 secs then later 355.981483177.  Should this ever happen?

I haven't look to see if this happens in vanilla -rt10 but I haven't
touched your ktimer code except for my logging and the patch with the
unlock_ktimer_base (since I was based off of -rt9)

FYI, the system is UP. And I compiled without CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR.

 Thanks

-- Steve
