[PATCH 2/2] Cpufreq/gov: use tick_nohz_check() to check idle micro accouting support

From: Lan Tianyu
Date: Tue Oct 29 2013 - 05:00:19 EST


Current, od_init() uses get_cpu_idle_time_us() to check whether
idle micro accouting is supported. The get_cpu_idle_time_us()
returns -1 only when tick nohz is disabled. This patch is to use
tick_nohz_check() directly to check nohz enable status instead of
get_cpu_idle_time_us(). This can avoid unnecessary getting and
putting cpu.
