Subject[PATCH 10/32] nohz: Adaptive tick stop and restart on nohz cpuset
Date
When a CPU is included in a nohz cpuset, try to switch
it to nohz mode from the interrupt exit path if it is running
a single non-idle task.

Then restart the tick if necessary if we are enqueuing a
second task while the timer is stopped, so that the scheduler
tick is rearmed.

[TODO: Handle the many things done from scheduler_tick()]

[ Included build fix from Geoff Levand ]
