This causes tick_broadcast_exit to be called despite not having entered broadcast mode. This causes the WARN_ON_ONCE(!irqs_disabled()) to trigger in some cases. It does not appear to cause problems for code today, but seems to violate the interface so should be fixed. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
