timer: remove code redundancy while calling get_nohz_timer_target()

There are only two users of get_nohz_timer_target(): timer and hrtimer. Both
call it under same circumstances, i.e.

	#ifdef CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON
	       if (!pinned && get_sysctl_timer_migration() && idle_cpu(this_cpu))
	               return get_nohz_timer_target();
	#endif

So, it makes more sense to get all this as part of get_nohz_timer_target()
instead of duplicating code at two places. For this another parameter is
required to be passed to this routine, pinned.

Maybe the pinned part should stay a caller detail. Although I don't really mind.

The patch looks good!

Thanks.

I tried that initially, but in that case the callers would have to call
smp_processor_id() in the else part and so decided to put that as well into this
routine only.
