5.10-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@xxxxxxxxx> commit 62c1256d544747b38e77ca9b5bfe3a26f9592576 upstream. When tick_nohz_stop_tick() stops the tick and high resolution timers are disabled, then the clock event device is not put into ONESHOT_STOPPED mode. This can lead to spurious timer interrupts with some clock event device drivers that don't shut down entirely after firing. Eliminate these by putting the device into ONESHOT_STOPPED mode at points where it is not being reprogrammed. When there are no timers active, then tick_program_event() with KTIME_MAX can be used to stop the device. When there is a timer active, the device can be stopped at the next tick (any new timer added by timers will reprogram the tick).
