    nohz: Restore NMI safe local irq work for local nohz kick · 40bea039
    Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
    The local nohz kick is currently used by perf which needs it to be
    NMI-safe. Recent commit though (7d1311b9)
    changed its implementation to fire the local kick using the remote kick
    API. It was convenient to make the code more generic but the remote kick
    isn't NMI-safe.
    
    As a result:

    Lets fix this by restoring the use of local irq work for the nohz local
    kick.
