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

------------------

From: Anna-Maria Gleixner <[email protected]>

commit 80d20d35af1edd632a5e7a3b9c0ab7ceff92769e upstream.

local_timer_softirq_pending() checks whether the timer softirq is
pending with: local_softirq_pending() & TIMER_SOFTIRQ.

This is wrong because TIMER_SOFTIRQ is the softirq number and not a
bitmask. So the test checks for the wrong bit.

Use BIT(TIMER_SOFTIRQ) instead.

Fixes: 5d62c183f9e9 ("nohz: Prevent a timer interrupt storm in 
tick_nohz_stop_sched_tick()")
