Currently, periodic timer that has load = delta = 0 performs trigger
on timer reload and stops, printing a "period zero" error message.
Introduce new policy that makes periodic timer to continuously trigger
with a period interval in case of load = 0.

Again, this looks like it's affecting behaviour even when the
policy flag isn't set.

thanks

No, the old behaviour is "to error out" when the delta = 0 and it's still the
same with this patch applied. This patch splits the "(delta == 0 || s->period ==
0)" check, so it won't error out if delta was changed to 1 in case of the
"continuous trigger" policy being used.
