    Subject[PATCH V4 0/3] time/cpuidle: Support in tick broadcast framework in absence of external clock device
    From
    Date
    This patchset provides support in the tick broadcast framework for such
    architectures so as to enable the CPUs to get into deep idle.

    Presently we are in need of this support on certain implementations of
    PowerPC. This patchset has thus been tested on the same.

    This patchset has been based on the idea discussed here:
    http://www.kernelhub.org/?p=2&msg=399516

    Changes in V4:
    1. Cleared the stand by CPU from the oneshot mask. As a result PATCH 3/3
    was simplified.
    2. Fixed compile time warnings.
