Pull timer fix from Thomas Gleixner:
 "A single fix for posix CPU timers.

  When a thread is cloned, the posix CPU timers are not inherited.

  If the parent has a CPU timer armed the corresponding tick dependency
  in the tasks tick_dep_mask is set and copied to the new thread, which
  means the new thread and all decendants will prevent the system to go
  into full NOHZ operation.

  Clear the tick dependency mask in copy_process() to fix this"
