When enqueuing a timer with expiry X into a timer queue, where already
a timer with expriy X is queued, the new timer is queued on the
right-hand side of the already queued timer.

Therefore it is no problem, to enqueue a hrtimer on a remote CPU with the
same expiry time than the programmed expiry time (expires_next) on this
CPU, because the reprogramming path is not executed - it is not the
"leftmost" hrtimer.
