Subject: timers: Unconditionally check deferrable base

From: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]>

commit ed4bbf7910b28ce3c691aef28d245585eaabda06 upstream.

When the timer base is checked for expired timers then the deferrable base must be checked as well. This was missed when making the deferrable base independent of base::nohz_active.
