[PATCH 2/2] hrtimer: Unconfuse a bit switch_hrtimer_base

[Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>]

The variable called "this_base" is confusing because its name suggests
it's of "struct hrtimer_clock_base" type, along with "base" and "new_base"
which doesn't help understanding this complicated function.

Make its name clearer and fix the misleading comments while at it.
