Current, od_init() uses get_cpu_idle_time_us() to check whether
idle micro accouting is supported. The get_cpu_idle_time_us()
returns -1 only when tick nohz is disabled. This patch is to use
tick_nohz_check() directly to check nohz enable status instead of
get_cpu_idle_time_us(). This can avoid unnecessary getting and
putting cpu.

In some cases, nohz enable status needs to be checked. E.G, in RCU and cpufreq
ondemand governor. So add tick_nohz_check() to return tick_nohz_enabled value
And use tick_nohz_check() instead of referencing tick_nohz_enabled in the rcutree_plugin.h.

Change since V2:
	Add ACCESS_ONCE to tick_nohz_check().

What's the point of this? 

Checking for tick_nohz_enabled is wrong to begin with.
