In case a remote CPU already expires the non pinned timers base of the local CPU, nothing more needs to be done by the local CPU. A check at the begin of the expire timers routine is required, because timer base lock is dropped before executing the timer callback function. This is a preparatory work, but has no functional impact right now.
