When CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS is disabled, but NOHZ is enabled then clock_was_set() is not doing anything. With HIGHRES=n the kernel relies on the periodic tick to update the clock offsets, but when NOHZ is enabled and active then CPUs which are in a deep idle sleep do not have a periodic tick which means the expiry of timers affected by clock_was_set() can be arbitrarily delayed up to the point where the CPUs are brought out of idle again. Make the clock_was_set() logic unconditionaly available so that idle CPUs are kicked out of idle to handle the update.

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.
