perf: Per cpu-context rotation timer
Give each cpu-context its own timer so that it is a self contained
entity, this eases the way for per-pmu-per-cpu contexts as well as
provides the basic infrastructure to allow different rotation
times per pmu.
Things to look at:
- folding the tick and these TICK_NSEC timers
- separate task context rotation
