Pavan Nikhilesh 7c6e645b59 event/octeontx2: fix HW timer race condition
Fix HW race condition observed when timeout resolution is low (<5us).
When HW traverses a given TIM bucket it will clear chunk_remainder,
but since SW always decreases the chunk_remainder at the start of the
arm routine it might cause a race where SW updates chunk_remainder
after HW has cleared it that lead to nasty side effects.
