Re: [PATCH 11/14] hrtimer: remove active_bases field from struct hrtimer_cpu_base

Active_bases field of struct hrtimer_cpu_base is used at only one place, i.e. hrtimer_interrupt() and at that place too we can easily use timerqueue_getnext() instead to achieve the same result. I don't think this will have any performance degradation issues and so removing this field.

Instead of removing it we should actually use ffs and avoid the whole looping. That was the intention in the first place, but I never wrote the patch...
