Subject: [PATCH 294/353] hrtimer: Prevent using hrtimer_grab_expiry_lock() on
 migration_base
Origin: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git/commit?id=e6152518bccba12b3bbdd47b5d5c4cdd56541609

[ Upstream commit cef1b87f98823af923a386f3f69149acb212d4a1 ]

As tglx puts it:
|If base == migration_base then there is no point to lock soft_expiry_lock
|simply because the timer is not executing the callback in soft irq context
|and the whole lock/unlock dance can be avoided.

Furthermore, all the path leading to hrtimer_grab_expiry_lock() assumes
timer->base and timer->base->cpu_base are always non-NULL. So it is safe
to remove the NULL checks here.
