Hi Ingo/Thomas,
This is V2 of the cleanups around timer-core initialization sent earlier. These make initialization of tvec_base's simpler by statically allocating memory for them, and removing the need of initializing them again on CPU hotplug.
V1->V2: - Dropped 2/3 from earlier set, which moved definition of __tvec_bases within a function, as that caused wreckage on xtensa and tile. - A new patch from Peter is added, 3/3. - Few changes in 1/3 on Ingo's suggestions: - Add explanatory comment around boot_tvec_bases and __tvec_bases. - s/boot_done/boot_cpu_skipped

Peter Zijlstra (2): timer: Allocate per-cpu tvec_base's statically timer: Further simplify SMP and HOTPLUG logic
Viresh Kumar (1): timer: Don't initialize tvec_base on hotplug
