timers: Remove delayed irqwork from alarmtimers implementation
Thomas asked about the delayed irq work in the alarmtimers code, and I realized that it was a legacy from when the alarmtimer base lock was a mutex (due to concerns that we'd be interacting with the RTC device, which is protected by mutexes). Since the alarmtimer base is now protected by a spinlock, we can simply execute alarmtimer functions directly from the hrtimer callback. Should any future alarmtimer functions sleep, they can simply manage scheduling any delayed work themselves.
