It makes a difference depending on what this flag does. If it clears the
current pending interrupt, then you _must_ do it before rearming the
timer. Otherwise you might clear the pending interrupt of the rearmed timer
(when the timeout is very small) which makes the machine wait forever for
the next timer interrupt.
