Linus Torvalds 9269d27e51 Updates to the tick/nohz code in this cycle:
- Micro-optimize tick_nohz_full_cpu()
 
  - Optimize idle exit tick restarts to be less eager
 
  - Optimize tick_nohz_dep_set_task() to only wake up
    a single CPU. This reduces IPIs and interruptions
    on nohz_full CPUs.
 
  - Optimize tick_nohz_dep_set_signal() in a similar
    fashion.
 
  - Skip IPIs in tick_nohz_kick_task() when trying
    to kick a non-running task.
 
  - Micro-optimize tick_nohz_task_switch() IRQ flags
    handling to reduce context switching costs.
 
  - Misc cleanups and fixes
