Splitting the timer-wakeups back into ktimersoftd would look like
helping. But note that all timer wake ups would happen there - even the
accumulated case where we have to wake 100 tasks at once. This would
then probably ask for split on SCHED_OTHER vs RT tasks like it is done
for clock_nanosleep().
