Subject[PATCH 07/10] nohz: Implement full dynticks kick
Date
Implement the full dynticks kick that is performed from
IPIs sent by various subsystems (scheduler, posix timers, ...)
when they want to notify about a new event that may
reconsider the dependency on the tick.

Most of the time, such an event end up restarting the tick.

(Part of the design with subsystems providing *_can_stop_tick()
helpers suggested by Peter Zijlstra a while ago).
