timer: Allocate per-cpu tvec_base's statically
Memory for the 'tvec_base' array is allocated separately for the boot CPU (statically)
and non-boot CPUs (dynamically).
The reason is because __TIMER_INITIALIZER() needs to set ->base to a
valid pointer (because we've made NULL special, hint: lock_timer_base())
and we cannot get a compile time pointer to per-cpu entries because we
don't know where we'll map the section, even for the boot cpu.
This can be simplified a bit by statically allocating per-cpu memory.
The only disadvantage is that memory for one of the structures will stay
unused, i.e. for the boot CPU, which uses boot_tvec_bases.
This will also guarantee that tvec_base is cacheline aligned. Even
though tvec_base has ____cacheline_aligned stuck on, kzalloc_node() does
not actually respect that (but guarantees a minimum u64 alignment).
