clockevents: Sanitize min_delta_ns adjustment and prevent overflows
The current logic which handles clock events programming failures can
increase min_delta_ns unlimited and even can cause overflows.
Sanitize it by:
- prevent zero increase when min_delta_ns == 1
- limiting min_delta_ns to a jiffie
- bail out if the jiffie limit is hit
- add retries stats for /proc/timer_list so we can gather data
