[PATCH] timer: Add lock annotation to lock_timer_base

[Josh Triplett <josht@us.ibm.com>]

lock_timer_base acquires a lock and returns with that lock held.  Add a lock
annotation to this function so that sparse can check callers for lock pairing,
and so that sparse will not complain about this function since it
intentionally uses the lock in this manner.
