Subject: [RFC/RFT][PATCH 7/7] time: tick-sched: Avoid running the same code twice in a row

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@...el.com>

To avoid running the same piece of code twice in a row, move the
tick stopping part of __tick_nohz_next_event() into a new function
called __tick_nohz_stop_tick() and invoke them both separately.

Make __tick_nohz_idle_enter() avoid calling __tick_nohz_next_event()
if it has been called already by tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() and
use the new next_idle_tick field in struct tick_sched to pass the
next event time value between tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() and
__tick_nohz_idle_enter().
