[patch -mm 01/28] NOHZ: Fix nox x86 dyntick idle handling

[Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>]

[-- Attachment #1: cpuidle-fix-sparc-arm-sh-idle.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1924 bytes --]

The cpuidle patches moved the tick nohz handling from irq_exit into
the inner idle loop. The change is correct as it covers non interrupt
based wakeups (e.g DMA) on x86 as well, but the move breaks ARM, SH
and SPARC64. 

Keep the original implementation and deselet the irq exit code for
those architectures which have idle wakeups without interrupts.

This way the non affected architectures are not burdened with the
extra changes in the idle implementation.
