Thomas, are they just hiding somewhere I can't find?

Jon, you've been terribly patient and great about resubmitting these
patches over and over. If I'm not just being crazy and missing these
patches in front of my nose, are you still willing to submit them
again? I think they'll be quite useful as folks start pushing the NOHZ
idle times out.

Absolutely! It is still on my to-do list, but unfortunately, I got busy with a couple other things.

With regard to the last patch set I submitted for this, Thomas had an issue with one of the patches. I understand the concern, but I am not sure which would be the preferred way to handle this. See the below thread:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=125062817124381&w=2

If you or Thomas have any feedback on this, I could re-work the patch against the latest kernel tree.

Cheers
Jon
