[PATCH v2 2/2] tick/nohz: Remove duplicate between tick_nohz_lowres_handler() and tick_nohz_highres_handler()

From: Peng Liu
Date: Tue Nov 28 2023 - 04:24:22 EST


From: Peng Liu <liupeng17@xxxxxxxxxx>

tick_nohz_lowres_handler() does the same work as tick_nohz_highres_handler()
plus the clockevent device reprogramming, so should reuse the latter.

Signed-off-by: Peng Liu <liupeng17@xxxxxxxxxx>

Changes in v2:
- Fix build warning: Function parameter or member 'mode' not described in 'tick_setup_sched_timer'
- Fix build error: use of undeclared identifier 'tick_nohz_highres_handler'
- Fix build error: use of undeclared identifier 'sched_skew_tick'
