Kevin O'Connor a6a6b21e4d armcm_timer: Use a static instruction count for TIMER_MIN_TRY_TICKS
Change TIMER_MIN_TRY_TICKS from 2us to 90 instructions.

On newer chips 2us is a large amount of time - for example on the
520Mhz stm32h723 it would be 1040 instructions.  Using a large time
can result in "busy waiting" in the irq handler when the cpu may be
better spent running tasks.

The armcm_timer.c code is used on most ARM cortex-M chips and on all
of these chips the SysTick timer should be tied directly to the
instruction counter.  This change should be safe because it should not
take more than 90 instructions to reschedule the timer on any of these
chips.  Also, all of these chips should be able to exit the irq
handler and reenter it in less than 90 instructions allowing more time
for tasks to run if the next timer is more than 90 timer ticks in the
future.
