Timer subsystem fixes:

- Clear timer_base::pending_map on CPU hot-unplug, that can
cause temporal timeout processing anomalous on the next
hot-replug (Liang Hao)

- Fix PID refcount leak in the posix-cpu-timers do_cpu_nanosleep()
signal path (Cen Zhang)

- Require (CAP_SYS_TIME) permission to set auxiliary clocks
via aux_clock_set() (Daehyeon Ko)

- Update offsets on sequence counter retry in
ktime_get_update_offsets_now() (Thomas Weißschuh)

Thanks,

Ingo
