Frederic Weisbecker 76c24fb054 nohz: New APIs to re-evaluate the tick on full dynticks CPUs
Provide two new helpers in order to notify the full dynticks CPUs about
some internal system changes against which they may reconsider the state
of their tick. Some practical examples include: posix cpu timers, perf tick
and sched clock tick.

For now the notifying handler, implemented through IPIs, is a stub
that will be implemented when we get the tick stop/restart infrastructure
in.
