Commit db08c53fdd542bb7f83b ("scripts/gdb: fix parameter handling in$lx_per_cpu") changed the parameter handling of lx_per_cpu to useGdbValue instead of parsing the variable name. Update the documentationto reflect the new lx_per_cpu usage. Update the hrtimer_bases exampleto use rb_tree instead of the timerqueue_head.next pointer removed incommit 511885d7061eda3eb1fa ("lib/timerqueue: Rely on rbtree semanticsfor next timer").
