Merge branch 'timers-nohz-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull timers/nohz changes from Ingo Molnar: "It mostly contains fixes and full dynticks off-case optimizations, by Frederic Weisbecker" * 'timers-nohz-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (24 commits) nohz: Include local CPU in full dynticks global kick nohz: Optimize full dynticks's sched hooks with static keys nohz: Optimize full dynticks state checks with static keys nohz: Rename a few state variables vtime: Always debug check snapshot source _before_ updating it vtime: Always scale generic vtime accounting results vtime: Optimize full dynticks accounting off case with static keys vtime: Describe overriden functions in dedicated arch headers m68k: hardirq_count() only need preempt_mask.h hardirq: Split preempt count mask definitions context_tracking: Split low level state headers vtime: Fix racy cputime delta update vtime: Remove a few unneeded generic vtime state checks context_tracking: User/kernel broundary cross trace events context_tracking: Optimize context switch off case with static keys context_tracking: Optimize guest APIs off case with static key context_tracking: Optimize main APIs off case with static key context_tracking: Ground setup for static key use context_tracking: Remove full dynticks' hacky dependency on wide context tracking nohz: Only enable context tracking on full dynticks CPUs ...
