clockevents: make device shutdown robust
The device shut down does not cleanup the next_event variable of the
clock event device. So when the device is reactivated the possible
stale next_event value can prevent the device to be reprogrammed as it
claims to wait on a event already.
This is the root cause of the resurfacing suspend/resume problem,
where systems need key press to come back to life.
Fix this by setting next_event to KTIME_MAX when the device is shut
down. Use a separate function for shutdown which takes care of that
and only keep the direct set mode call in the broadcast code, where we
can not touch the next_event value.
