A small set of fixes for the timers core:

- Fix the warning condition in __run_timers() which does not take into
     account, that a CPU base (especially the deferrable base) has never a
     timer armed on it and therefore the next_expiry value can become stale.
 
   - Replace a WARN_ON() in the NOHZ code with a WARN_ON_ONCE() to prevent
     endless spam in dmesg.
 
   - Remove the double star from a comment which is not meant to be in
     kernel-doc format.
