get_timer_this_cpu_base() is only used in __mod_timer() where the timer
base lock is already held via raw_spin_lock_irqsave().  In this context,
preemption is disabled and the CPU number cannot change, making
raw_smp_processor_id() safe to use.

Since get_timer_cpu_base() provides identical functionality using
raw_smp_processor_id(), replace get_timer_this_cpu_base() with
get_timer_cpu_base() to eliminate code duplication.

No functional change intended.

Ok but this should be smp_processor_id() since we expect IRQs to be disabled.

Thanks.
