Why hrtick_update() is need to be delayed after modifying nr_running?
You should not impact current hrtick logic without once mentioning.

I think similar change for sched_stoptask.c is required.

In fact I could not boot tip/master with this v4 patchset.
It reports rcu stall warns without applying following tweak:

--- a/kernel/sched_stoptask.c
+++ b/kernel/sched_stoptask.c
@@ -35,11 +35,13 @@ static struct task_struct *pick_next_task_stop(struct rq *rq

static void
dequeue_task_stop(struct rq *rq, struct task_struct *p, int flags)
{
+ dec_nr_running(rq);
}
