[PATCH V1 Resend 0/5] tick: bugfixes

Hi Thomas,

As suggested by you (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/14/797), this is the first lot
of changes I have. These are all potential bug fixes (Sorry if I haven't read
the most obvious code correctly at some place :) ).

Patch 2/5 isn't a bug fix but was required as a dependency for 3/5.

Some discussions already happened for 5/5 here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/9/243
https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/4/9/346

I have tried to mark stable release wherever possible.

Viresh Kumar (5):
tick-common: fix wrong check in tick_check_replacement()
tick-common: don't check tick_oneshot_mode_active() from
tick_check_preferred()
tick-common: do additional checks in tick_check_preferred()
tick-sched: don't call update_wall_time() when delta is lesser than
tick_period
tick-sched: replace tick_nohz_active with tick_nohz_enabled in
tick_nohz_switch_to_nohz()
