Fun. I came up with the same thing before going to bed. Just that I
named the function differently: rcu_irq_enter_check_tick()

And I made this a NOP for for !NOHZ_FULL systems and avoided the call if
context tracking is not enabled at boot.

void __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick(void);

static inline void rcu_irq_enter_check_tick(void)
{
	if (context_tracking_enabled())
        	__rcu_irq_enter_check_tick();
}

Thanks,
