Subject[PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 2/4] rcu: Make RCU_FAST_NO_HZ use timer rather than hrtimer
Date
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paul.mckenney@linaro.org>

The RCU_FAST_NO_HZ facility uses an hrtimer to wake up a CPU when
it is allowed to go into dyntick-idle mode, which is almost always
cancelled soon after. This is not what hrtimers are good at, so
this commit switches to the timer wheel.
