4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Joonyoung Shim <jy0922.shim at samsung.com>
commit bc7c36eedb0c7004aa06c2afc3c5385adada8fa3 upstream.
When a CPU goes offline a potentially pending timer interrupt is not
cleared. When the CPU comes online again then the pending interrupt is
delivered before the per cpu clockevent device is initialized. As a
consequence the tick interrupt handler dereferences a NULL pointer.
[ 51.251378] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000040
[ 51.289348] task: ee942d00 task.stack: ee960000
[ 51.293861] PC is at tick_periodic+0x38/0xb0
[ 51.298102] LR is at tick_handle_periodic+0x1c/0x90
Clear the pending interrupt in the cpu dying path.
