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.
