Note that the stop_tick naming in nohz can be misleading. It means
we actually leave the periodic mode and we enter in dynamic tick mode.

In practice it means that the tick is delayed until the next event, which
in the worst case may well be in 1 ms and in the best case never. So what
you probably want to check instead is whether the tick has been entirely
stopped (ie: we called hrtimer_cancel(&ts->sched_timer)).

Thanks.
