[PATCH 2/2] tick/nohz: Remove duplicate between tick_nohz_lowres_handler() and tick_nohz_highres_handler()

[Peng Liu]

From: Peng Liu <liupeng17@xxxxxxxxxx>

tick_nohz_lowres_handler() does the same work as tick_nohz_highres_handler()
plus the clockevent device reprogramming, so should reuse the latter.
