Subject: [GIT PULL] NOHZ changes for v4.8

Linus,

Please pull the latest timers-nohz-for-linus git tree from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git timers-nohz-for-linus

   # HEAD: 553bf6bbfd8a540c70aee28eb50e24caff456a03 sched/cputime: Drop local_irq_save/restore from irqtime_account_irq()

This tree:

 - Fixes system/idle cputime leaked on cputime accounting (all nohz configs) (Rik van Riel)

 - Removes the messy, ad-hoc irqtime account on nohz-full and makes it compatible
   with CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING=y instead. (Rik van Riel)

 - Cleanups. (Frederic Weisbecker)

 - Removes unecessary irq disablement in the irqtime code. (Rik van Riel)

 Thanks,

	Ingo
