On another way, I saw that target_expiration is sometimes in a future

in start_sw_period). Do you think it is a normal thing or
target_expiration should be adjust to avoid a timer miss ?
How you handle this in v4?
I didn't handle this in any version of the patch. It is hard to
reproduce and the jitter was always close to the deadline.
I never proved that this case distort my tests. I continue to dig that
way but it'll be another patch if necessary.
Thank you for your patch on min_timer_period_us.
