It seems that the WARN occurs because an hrtimer has been started in the time between the releasing of the timekeeper lock and the IPI call (via a call to on_each_cpu) in clock_was_set() in the do_settimeofday() code. The end result is that a REALTIME_CLOCK timer has been added with softexpires = expires = KTIME_MAX. The hrtimer_interrupt() fires/is called and the loop at kernel/hrtimer.c:1289 is executed. In this loop the code subtracts the clock base's offset (which was set to timekeeper->offs_real in do_settimeofday()) from the current hrtimer_cpu_base->expiry value (which was KTIME_MAX): KTIME_MAX - (a negative value) = overflow A simple check for an overflow can resolve this problem. Using KTIME_MAX instead of the overflow value will result in the hrtimer function being run, and the reprogramming of the timer after that.
