hrtimer: Fix /proc/timer_list regression

commit 507e1231 (timer stats: Optimize by adding quick check to avoid
function calls) introduced a regression in /proc/timer_list.

/proc/timer_list shows now
 #0: <c27d46b0>, tick_sched_timer, S:01, <(null)>, /-1
instead of
 #0: <c27d46b0>, tick_sched_timer, S:01, hrtimer_start, swapper/0

Revert the hrtimer quick check for now. The optimization needs more
thought, but this is neither 2.6.32-rc7 nor stable material.

[ tglx: - Removed unrelated changes from the original patch
  	- Prevent unneccesary call to timer_stats_update_stats
	- massaged the changelog ]
