- Prevent a thundering herd problem when the timekeeper CPU is delayed
and a large number of CPUs compete to acquire jiffies_lock to do the
update. Limit it to one CPU with a separate "uncontended" atomic
variable.
- A set of improvements for the timer migration mechanism:
- Support imbalanced NUMA trees correctly
- Support dynamic exclusion of CPUs from the migrator duty to allow the
cpuset/isolation mechanism to exclude them from handling timers of
remote idle CPUs.
- The usual small updates, cleanups and enhancements
