[PATCH 35/35] arm: bl_switcher: Kill tick suspend hackery

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Mon Feb 16 2015 - 08:09:57 EST


From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Sure it's simple to abuse random functions and data structures and let
the people who made the mistake to put the declarations into a global
header file deal with the fallout.

Adding a tick_suspend/resume_local() pair to the core code would have
been a trivial thing to do.

Use the new tick_suspend/resume_local() and get rid of the homebrewn
hackery. The check for the cpumask is completely pointless. There is
no harm to suspend a per cpu tick device unconditionally. If that's a
real issue then we fix it proper at the core level and not with some
completely undocumented hacks in some random arch code.

Move the tick internals to the core code, now that this nuisance is
gone.
