This assumption is not longer true when high resolution timers and dynamic ticks come into play, as they may switch off the local APIC timer completely. Take the PIT/HPET interrupts into account too, to avoid false positives. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Cc: Andi Kleen Cc: Zachary Amsden Cc: "Eric W.
