sched: don't queue timers on quiesced CPUs
CPUSets have cpusets.quiesce sysfs file now, with which some CPUs can opt for isolating themselves from background kernel activities, like: timers & hrtimers. get_nohz_timer_target() is used for finding suitable CPU for firing a timer. To guarantee that new timers wouldn't be queued on quiesced CPUs, we need to modify this routine. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org>
