Subject: [PATCH 2/3] nohz: Remove ts->inidle checks before restarting the tick
Date: Tue, 24 Jan 2012 18:59:43 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1327427984-23282-2-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1327427984-23282-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com>

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

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