hrtimer: Set expiry time before switch_hrtimer_base()

switch_hrtimer_base() calls hrtimer_check_target() which ensures that
we do not migrate a timer to a remote cpu if the timer expires before
the current programmed expiry time on that remote cpu.

But __hrtimer_start_range_ns() calls switch_hrtimer_base() before the
new expiry time is set. So the sanity check in hrtimer_check_target()
is operating on stale or even uninitialized data.

Update expiry time before calling switch_hrtimer_base().
