From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>
Currently, can_stop_idle_tick() prints "NOHZ: local_softirq_pending HH"
(where "HH" is the hexadecimal softirq vector number) when one or more
non-RCU softirq handlers are still enabled when checking to stop the
scheduler-tick interrupt. This message is not as enlightening as one
might hope, so this commit changes it to "NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU
local softirq work is pending, handler #HH".
