Subject: [75/80] tick-broadcast: Stop active broadcast device when replacing it

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@...utronix.de>

commit c1be84309c58b1e7c6d626e28fba41a22b364c3d upstream.

When a better rated broadcast device is installed, then the current
active device is not disabled, which results in two running broadcast
devices.
