clock_was_set() cannot be called from hard interrupt context because
it calls on_each_cpu(). For fixing the widely reported leap seconds
issue it's necessary to call it from the timer interrupt context.

Provide a new function which denotes it in the hrtimer cpu base
structure of the cpu on which it is called and raising the timer
softirq.

We then execute the clock_was_set() notificiation in the timer softirq
context in hrtimer_run_pending().
