Subject[PATCH v3 12/17] timer: Check if timers base is handled already
Date
Due to the conversion of the NOHZ timer placement to a pull at expiry
time model, the per CPU timer bases with non pinned timers are no
longer handled only by the local CPU. In case a remote CPU already
expires the non pinned timers base of the local cpu, nothing more
needs to be done by the local CPU. A check at the begin of the expire
timers routine is required, because timer base lock is dropped before
executing the timer callback function.

This is a preparatory work, but has no functional impact right now.
