sched: Fix the irqtime code to deal with u64 wraps

Some ARM systems have a short sched_clock() [ which needs to be fixed
too ], but this exposed a bug in the irq_time code as well, it doesn't
deal with wraps at all.

Fix the irq_time code to deal with u64 wraps by re-writing the code to
only use delta increments, which avoids the whole issue.
