+Subject: nohz: Fix another inconsistency between CONFIG_NO_HZ=n and nohz=off
+
+From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
+
+commit 0e576acbc1d9600cf2d9b4a141a2554639959d50 upstream.
+
+If CONFIG_NO_HZ=n tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() returns NSEC_PER_SEC/HZ.
+
+If CONFIG_NO_HZ=y and the nohz functionality is disabled via the
+command line option "nohz=off" or not enabled due to missing hardware
+support, then tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() returns 0. That happens
+because ts->sleep_length is never set in that case.
+
+Set it to NSEC_PER_SEC/HZ when the NOHZ mode is inactive.
