Linus Torvalds a53fcff8fc Updates for the NOHZ subsystem:
- Fix a long standing TOCTOU in get_cpu_sleep_time_us()
 
   - Make the CPU offline NOHZ handling more robust by disabling NOHZ on the
     outgoing CPU early instead of creating unneeded state which needs to be
     undone.
 
   - Unify idle CPU time accounting instead of having two different
     accounting mechanisms. These two different mechanisms are not really
     independent, but the different properties can in the worst case cause
     that gloabl idle time can be observed going backwards.
 
   - Consolidate the idle/iowait time retrieval interfaces instead of
     converting back and forth between them.
 
   - Make idle interrupt time accounting more robust. The original code
     assumes that interrupt time accouting is enabled and therefore stops
     elapsing idle time while an interrupt is handled in NOHZ dyntick
     state. That assumption is not correct as interrupt time accounting can
     be disabled at compile and runtime.
 
   - Fix an accounting error between dyntick idle time and dyntick idle
     steal time. The stolen time is not accounted and therefore idle time
     becomes inaccurate. The stolen time is now accounted after the fact as
     there is no way to predict the steal time upfront.
