Frederic Weisbecker a0db971e4e nohz: Move idle balancer registration to the idle path
The idle load balancing registration path assumes that we only stop the
tick when the CPU is idle, ignoring the nohz full case. As a result, a
nohz full CPU that is running a task may be chosen to perform idle load
balancing.

Lets make sure that only CPUs in dynticks idle mode can be picked as
idle load balancers.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
