Subject: [PATCH 8/9] posix-cpu-timers: Migrate to use new tick dependency mask model
Instead of providing asynchronous checks for the nohz subsystem to verify
posix cpu timers tick dependency, migrate the latter to the new mask.
In order to keep track of the running timers and expose the tick
dependency accordingly, we must probe the timers queuing and dequeuing
on threads and process lists.
Unfortunately it implies both task and signal level dependencies. We
should be able to further optimize this and merge all that on the task
level dependency, at the cost of a bit of complexity and may be overhead.
