My tree also has this:
commit 5536f5491a2e098
softirq: keep the 'softirq pending' check RT-only
The patch "nohz: Prevent erroneous tick stop invocations" was merged differently upstream. The original issue where a slow box could lock up with a pending timer remained. I currently assume that this is a RT only issue and keep the patch as RT only.
