Subject: [PATCH 0/7] timers/nohz: Fixes and cleanups v2

Try to (partially) fix the issue reported in https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230128020051.2328465-1-liaoyu15@huawei.com/

Changes since v1:

* Fix compute_delta left unused (thanks Hillf)
* Pass directly struct tick_sched to get_cpu_sleep_time_us()
* Add Peterz ack
* Remove selftests with wrong assertions

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks.git
	timers/core

HEAD: 0b86fc6ed10742ec8e54cd4d495c1ce9d4c1b4e0

Thanks,
	Frederic
