[PATCH 2/4] timer: relax tick stop in idle entry

[Jacob Pan <jacob.jun.pan@linux.intel.com>]

Upon entering idle, we can turn off tick if the next timeout
is exactly one tick away. Otherwise, we could enter inner idle loop
with tick still enabled, without resched set, the tick will continue
during idle therefore less optimal in terms of energy savings.
