If I issue a clock_delay(x->x_clock, 0), will the registered tick function be executed in the same clock tick, or will it always wait for the next clock tick?
Basically, I am looking for a way to schedule something "as soon as possible".

It's indeed "as soon as possible", except that if someone else has previously scheduled something ASAP that ASAP will get in earlier than yours. You can chain arbitrarily many clock_delay(..., 0) calls without DSP or event polling getting in between.

What if negative delays are used?

That would be an error (silently 'corrected' to delay zero).
