Hi,Mike & Steven
	On https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/24/1178, the patch of "timers:
do not raise softirq unconditionally" is reverted. Thanks for Steven's
detailed comments, it's quite clear explained.
	I remember Mike has a patch trying to fix it but late
abandoned. Do you still have any plan to work on this? Otherwise, I
will have a try.
	
Thanks

Sebastian converted the lock to raw in -rt, so nohz_full now works
without any extra hackery.

Hi, Mike, thanks for reply and the update. I still noticed timer softirq
on my isolated CPUs, possibly something wrong on my environment. I will
re-check it.

Thanks
