Linus,

Please pull the latest timers/nohz git tree from:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git timers-nohz-2021-06-28

# HEAD: 09fe880ed7a160ebbffb84a0a9096a075e314d2f MAINTAINERS: Add myself as context tracking maintainer

Updates to the tick/nohz code in this cycle:

- Micro-optimize tick_nohz_full_cpu()

- Optimize idle exit tick restarts to be less eager

- Optimize tick_nohz_dep_set_task() to only wake up
a single CPU. This reduces IPIs and interruptions
on nohz_full CPUs.

- Optimize tick_nohz_dep_set_signal() in a similar
fashion.

- Skip IPIs in tick_nohz_kick_task() when trying
to kick a non-running task.

- Micro-optimize tick_nohz_task_switch() IRQ flags
handling to reduce context switching costs.

- Misc cleanups and fixes

Thanks,

Ingo
