[V2,Resend,2/4] timer: hrtimer: Don't check idle_cpu() before calling get_nohz_timer_target()

Viresh Kumar Nov. 6, 2012, 10:38 a.m. UTC 
Check for current cpu's idleness already done in implementation of
sched_select_cpu() which is called by get_nohz_timer_target(). So, no need to
call idle_cpu() twice, once from sched_select_cpu() and once from timer and
hrtimer before calling get_nohz_timer_target().

This patch removes calls to idle_cpu() from timer and hrtimer.

This also reduces an extra call to smp_processor_id() when
get_nohz_timer_target() is called.
