Subject: kernel/hrtimer/hotplug: don't wake ktimersoftd while holding the
 hrtimer base lock
Git-repo: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git
Git-commit: f53c46477839411133c0c80f67d1cb31a886e535
Patch-mainline: Queued in subsystem maintainer repository
References: SLE12 Realtime Extension

kernel/hrtimer: don't wakeup a process while holding the hrtimer base lock
missed a path, namely hrtimers_dead_cpu() -> migrate_hrtimer_list().  Defer
raising softirq until after base lock has been released there as well.
