Subject: [PATCH] nohz: Remove ts->inidle checks before restarting the tick
Date: Tue,  6 Dec 2011 15:30:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1323181843-12144-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)

ts->inidle is set by tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick(1) and unset
by tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(). These two calls are assumed
to be always paired. This means that by the time we call
tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick(), ts->inidle is supposed to
be always set to 1.

Remove the checks for ts->inidle in tick_nohz_restart_sched_tick().
This simplifies a bit the code and improves its debuggability
(ie: ensure the call is paired with a tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick() call).
