[PATCH] timer: remove code redundancy while calling get_nohz_timer_target()

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Tue Mar 18 2014 - 06:56:23 EST


There are only two users of get_nohz_timer_target(): timer and hrtimer. Both
call it under same circumstances, i.e.

#ifdef CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON
if (!pinned && get_sysctl_timer_migration() && idle_cpu(this_cpu))
return get_nohz_timer_target();
#endif

So, it makes more sense to get all this as part of get_nohz_timer_target()
instead of duplicating code at two places. For this another parameter is
required to be passed to this routine, pinned.
