Right, so what I was saying is that it doesn't make much sense to 
show "OFFSET: 0", and it's also confusing when nothing is shown on
the older versions.  

Perhaps there could be a "NOW:" field, where you come up with 
per-timer-type algorithms to show a value that relates to the
expires value?

And while you're at it, can you please remove the "HRTIMER_BASES[]"
and also clean up the unnecessary accessible() calls? 

Thanks,
