Frederic Weisbecker 3f69d04e14 tick: Shut down low-res tick from dying CPU
The timekeeping duty is handed over from the outgoing CPU within stop
machine. This works well if CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n or the tick is in
high-res mode. However in low-res dynticks mode, the tick isn't
cancelled until the clockevent is shut down, which can happen later. The
tick may therefore fire again once IRQs are re-enabled on stop machine
and until IRQs are disabled for good upon the last call to idle.

That's so many opportunities for a timekeeper to go idle and the
outgoing CPU to take over that duty. This is why
tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() is called one last time on idle if the CPU
is seen offline: so that the timekeeping duty is handed over again in
case the CPU has re-taken the duty.

This means there are two timekeeping handovers on CPU down hotplug with
different undocumented constraints and purposes:

1) A handover on stop machine for !dynticks || highres. All online CPUs
   are guaranteed to be non-idle and the timekeeping duty can be safely
   handed-over. The hrtimer tick is cancelled so it is guaranteed that in
   dynticks mode the outgoing CPU won't take again the duty.

2) A handover on last idle call for dynticks && lowres.  Setting the
   duty to TICK_DO_TIMER_NONE makes sure that a CPU will take over the
   timekeeping.

Prepare for consolidating the handover to a single place (the first one)
with shutting down the low-res tick as well from
tick_cancel_sched_timer() as well. This will simplify the handover and
unify the tick cancellation between high-res and low-res.
