Subject: [PATCH 2/2] scripts/gdb: Update documentation for lx_per_cpu

Commit db08c53fdd542bb7f83b ("scripts/gdb: fix parameter handling in
$lx_per_cpu") changed the parameter handling of lx_per_cpu to use
GdbValue instead of parsing the variable name.  Update the documentation
to reflect the new lx_per_cpu usage.  Update the hrtimer_bases example
to use rb_tree instead of the timerqueue_head.next pointer removed in
commit 511885d7061eda3eb1fa ("lib/timerqueue: Rely on rbtree semantics
for next timer").
