perf: Optimize hrtimer events
There is no need to re-initialize the hrtimer every time we start it, so don't do that (shaves a few cycles). Also, since we know hrtimers run at a fixed rate (nanoseconds) we can pre-compute the desired frequency at which they tick. This avoids us having to go through the whole adaptive frequency feedback logic (shaves another few cycles).
