    nohz: Re-evaluate the tick from the scheduler IPI · ff442c51
    Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
    The scheduler IPI is used by the scheduler to kick
    full dynticks CPUs asynchronously when more than one
    task are running or when a new timer list timer is
    enqueued. This way the destination CPU can decide
    to restart the tick to handle this new situation.
    
    Now let's call that kick in the scheduler IPI.
    
    (Reusing the scheduler IPI rather than implementing
    a new IPI was suggested by Peter Zijlstra a while ago)
