    Merge branch 'timers/nohz-v3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks into timers/nohz
    
    Pull nohz improvements from Frederic Weisbecker:
    
     " It mostly contains fixes and full dynticks off-case optimizations. I believe that
       distros want to enable this feature so it seems important to optimize the case
       where the "nohz_full=" parameter is empty. ie: I'm trying to remove any performance
       regression that comes with NO_HZ_FULL=y when the feature is not used.
    
       This patchset improves the current situation a lot (off-case appears to be around 11% faster
       with hackbench, although I guess it may vary depending on the configuration but it should be
       significantly faster in any case) now there is still some work to do: I can still observe a
       remaining loss of 1.6% throughput seen with hackbench compared to CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=n. "
