hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer stores the pointer to the next expiring timer in a CPU base. This pointer cannot be dereferenced and is solely used to check whether a hrtimer which is removed is the hrtimer which is the first to expire in the CPU base. If this is the case, then the timer hardware needs to be reprogrammed to avoid an extra interrupt for nothing. Again, this is conditional functionality, but there is no compelling reason to make this conditional. As a preparation, hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer needs to be available unconditonally. Aside of that the upcoming support for softirq based hrtimers requires access to this pointer unconditionally as well, so our motivation is not entirely simplicity based. Make the update of hrtimer_cpu_base.next_timer unconditional and remove the #ifdef cruft. The impact on CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n && CONFIG_NOHZ=n is marginal as it's just a store on an already dirtied cacheline. No functional change.
