tick: broadcast: Prevent livelock from event handler With the removal of the hrtimer softirq the switch to highres/nohz mode happens in the tick interrupt. That leads to a livelock when the per cpu event handler is directly called from the broadcast handler under broadcast lock because broadcast lock needs to be taken for the highres/nohz switch as well. Solve this by calling the cpu local handler outside the broadcast_lock held region.
