hrtimer: reduce calls to hrtimer_get_softirq_time()

Browse source 
It seems that hrtimer_run_queues() is calling hrtimer_get_softirq_time() more
often than it needs to.  This can cause frequent contention on systems with
large numbers of processors/cores.

With this patch, hrtimer_run_queues only calls hrtimer_get_softirq_time() if
there is a pending timer in one of the hrtimer bases, and only once.

This also combines hrtimer_run_queues() and the inline run_hrtimer_queue()
into one function.
