clockevents: broadcast fixup possible waiters

Browse source 
Until the C1E patches arrived there where no users of periodic broadcast
before switching to oneshot mode. Now we need to trigger a possible
waiter for a periodic broadcast when switching to oneshot mode.
Otherwise we can starve them for ever.
