Thomas Gleixner f8381cba04 [PATCH] tick-management: broadcast functionality
With Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

Add broadcast functionality, so per cpu clock event devices can be registered
as dummy devices or switched from/to broadcast on demand.  The broadcast
function distributes the events via the broadcast function of the clock event
device.  This is primarily designed to replace the switch apic timer to / from
IPI in power states, where the apic stops.
