hrtimer: Optimize for local timers
The decision whether to keep timers on the local CPU or on the CPU they are
associated to is suboptimal and causes the expensive switch_hrtimer_base()
mechanism to be invoked more than necessary. This is especially true for
pinned timers.
Rewrite the decision logic so that the current base is kept if:
1) The callback is running on the base
2) The timer is associated to the local CPU and the first expiring timer as
that allows to optimize for reprogramming avoidance
3) The timer is associated to the local CPU and pinned
4) The timer is associated to the local CPU and timer migration is
disabled.
Only #2 was covered by the original code, but especially #3 makes a
difference for high frequency rearming timers like the scheduler hrtick
timer. If timer migration is disabled, then #4 avoids most of the base
switches.
