[PATCH] nohz: prevent tilegx network driver interrupts

[Chris Metcalf <cmetcalf@ezchip.com>]

In nohz_full mode, by default distribute networking shim
interrupts across the housekeeping cores, not all the cores.

The alternate approaches to this might be:

1. "#define housekeeping_mask cpu_online_mask" in the non-nohz_full
   arm in <linux/tick.h>, then just unconditionally use
   "housekeeping_mask".

2. Provide an accessor that returns the cpumask to use for housekeeping
   chores and implement it in the obvious ways for both nohz_full
   and non-nohz_full.

The latter seems like arguably the most satisfying approach, but
the patch below is, if nothing else, suitable to push for 4.3
without any further API development work.

Frederic (or others), comments?
