4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit fd45bb77ad682be728d1002431d77b8c73342836 upstream.
The timer start debug function is called before the proper timer base is
set. As a consequence the trace data contains the stale CPU and flags
values.
Call the debug function after setting the new base and flags.
Fixes: 500462a9de65 ("timers: Switch to a non-cascading wheel")
