Subject: [PATCH v6 15/21] timer: Add get next timer interrupt functionality for remote CPUs

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.
