perf: Per cpu-context rotation timer

Give each cpu-context its own timer so that it is a self contained
entity, this eases the way for per-pmu-per-cpu contexts as well as
provides the basic infrastructure to allow different rotation
times per pmu.

Things to look at:
 - folding the tick and these TICK_NSEC timers
 - separate task context rotation
