hrtimers: Provide schedule_hrtimeout for CLOCK_REALTIME

The current version of schedule_hrtimeout() always uses the
monotonic clock. Some system calls such as mq_timedsend()
and mq_timedreceive(), however, require the use of the wall
clock due to the definition of the system call.

This patch provides the infrastructure to use schedule_hrtimeout() 
with a CLOCK_REALTIME timer.
