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

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

From: Wanpeng Li <wanpeng.li@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 868933359a3bdda25b562e9d41bce7071edc1b08 upstream.

The commit 177ef2a6315e ("sched/deadline: Fix a precision problem in
the microseconds range") forgot to change the UP version of
hrtick_start(), do so now.
