Frederic Weisbecker 2e70933866 nohz: Only enable context tracking on full dynticks CPUs
The context tracking subsystem has the ability to selectively
enable the tracking on any defined subset of CPU. This means that
we can define a CPU range that doesn't run the context tracking
and another range that does.

Now what we want in practice is to enable the tracking on full
dynticks CPUs only. In order to perform this, we just need to pass
our full dynticks CPU range selection from the full dynticks
subsystem to the context tracking.

This way we can spare the overhead of RCU user extended quiescent
state and vtime maintainance on the CPUs that are outside the
full dynticks range. Just keep in mind the raw context tracking
itself is still necessary everywhere.
