tipc: clean up socket timer function
The last remaining BH upcall to the socket, apart for the message
reception function tipc_sk_rcv(), is the timer function.
We prefer to let this function continue executing in BH, since it only
does read-acces to semi-permanent data, but we make three changes to it:
1) We introduce a bh_lock_sock()/bh_unlock_sock() inside the scope
of port_lock. This is a preparation for replacing port_lock with
bh_lock_sock() at the locations where it is still used.
2) We move the function from port.c to socket.c, as a further step
of eliminating the port code level altogether.
3) We let it make use of the newly introduced tipc_msg_create()
function. This enables us to get rid of three context specific
functions (port_create_self_abort_msg() etc.) in port.c
