-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
---------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

The warning in the NOHZ code, which triggers when a CPU goes idle with
softirqs pending can fill up the logs quite quickly.  Rate limit the output
until we found the root cause of that problem.
