posix-timers: Prepare for PREEMPT_RT

Posix timer delete retry loops are affected by the same priority inversion
and live lock issues as the other timers.

Provide a RT specific synchronization function which keeps a reference to
the timer by holding rcu read lock to prevent the timer from being freed,
dropping the timer lock and invoking the timer specific wait function.

This does not yet cover posix CPU timers because they need more special
treatment on PREEMPT_RT.
