Subject: [GIT pull] timer fixes for 4.8

Linus,

please pull the latest timers-urgent-for-linus git tree from:

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

Two fixlet from the timers departement:

    - A fix for scheduler stalls in the tick idle code affecting NOHZ_FULL
      kernels

    - A trivial compile fix

Thanks,

	tglx
