[PATCH 4/8] nohz: Remove idle task special case

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Thu Jun 11 2015 - 13:48:03 EST


This is a leftover from old days to avoid conflicts with dynticks idle
code. Now full dynticks and idle dynticks are better integrated and
interact without known issue.

So lets remove it.
