Merge branch 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull NOHZ fix from Ingo Molnar:
"This fixes an old NOHZ race where we incorrectly calculate the next
timer interrupt in certain circumstances where hrtimers are pending,
that can cause hard to reproduce stalled-values artifacts in
/proc/stat"
* 'timers-urgent-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
nohz: Fix collision between tick and other hrtimers
