    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull irq core changes from Ingo Molnar:
     "The biggest changes are the IRQ-work and printk changes from Frederic
      Weisbecker, which prepare the code for 'full dynticks' (the ability to
      stop or slow down the periodic tick arbitrarily, not just in idle time
      as today):
    
       - Don't stop tick with irq works pending.  This fix is generally
         useful and concerns archs that can't raise self IPIs.
    
       - Flush irq works before CPU offlining.
    
       - Introduce "lazy" irq works that can wait for the next tick to be
         executed, unless it's stopped.
    
       - Implement klogd wake up using irq work.  This removes the ad-hoc
         printk_tick()/printk_needs_cpu() hooks and make it working even in
         dynticks mode.
    
       - Cleanups and fixes."
