George Anzinger 78fa74a23b [PATCH] posix timers: fix normalization problem 
(We found this (after a customer complained) and it is in the kernel.org
kernel.  Seems that for CLOCK_MONOTONIC absolute timers and clock_nanosleep
calls both the request time and wall_to_monotonic are subtracted prior to
the normalize resulting in an overflow in the existing normalize test.
This causes the result to be shifted ~4 seconds ahead instead of ~2 seconds
back in time.)

The normalize code in posix-timers.c fails when the tv_nsec member is ~1.2
seconds negative.  This can happen on absolute timers (and
clock_nanosleeps) requested on CLOCK_MONOTONIC (both the request time and
wall_to_monotonic are subtracted resulting in the possibility of a number
close to -2 seconds.)

This fix uses the set_normalized_timespec() (which does not have an
overflow problem) to fix the problem and as a side effect makes the code
cleaner.
