[patch 17/21] nohz: Fix __udelay.

From: Martin Schwidefsky
Date: Wed Oct 01 2008 - 05:03:54 EST


From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>

rcutorture reveals that our __udelay implementation is still buggy,
since it might schedule tasklets, but prevents their execution:

NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 42
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 142
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 02

To fix this we make sure that only the clock comparator interrupt
is enabled when the enabled wait psw is loaded.
Also no code gets called anymore which might schedule tasklets.
