To prepare for the conversion of the NOHZ timer placement to a pull at
expiry time model it's required to have functionality available getting the
next timer interrupt on a remote CPU.
Locking of the timer bases and getting the information for the next timer
interrupt functionality is split into separate functions. This is required
to be compliant with lock ordering when the new model is in place.

v8:
- Update comment
v7:
- Move functions into CONFIG_SMP && CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON section
- change lock, fetch functions to be unconditional
- split out unlock function into a separate function
v6:
- introduce timer_lock_remote_bases() to fix race
