hrtimer: Make the remote enqueue check unconditional

hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next is used to cache the next event armed in the
timer hardware. The value is used to check whether an hrtimer can be
enqueued remotely. If the new hrtimer is expiring before expires_next, then
remote enqueue is not possible as the remote hrtimer hardware cannot be
accessed for reprogramming to an earlier expiry time.

The remote enqueue check is currently conditional on
CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y and hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active. There is no
compelling reason to make this conditional.

Move hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next out of the CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=y
guarded area and remove the conditionals in hrtimer_check_target().

The check is currently a NOOP for the CONFIG_HIGH_RES_TIMERS=n and the
!hrtimer_cpu_base.hres_active case because in these cases nothing updates
hrtimer_cpu_base.expires_next yet. This will be changed with later patches
which further reduce the #ifdef zoo in this code.
