The current check whether a forward of the timer base is required can be
simplified by using an already existing comparison function which is easier
to read. The related comment is outdated and was not updated when the check
changed in commit 36cd28a4cdd0 ("timers: Lower base clock forwarding
threshold").
Use time_before_eq() for the check and replace the comment by copying the
comment from the same check inside get_next_timer_interrupt(). Move the
precious information of the outdated comment to the proper place in
__run_timers().
No functional change.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
