Minor nit, but I'd prefer a more verbose changelog (I forget things
quickly and like to rely on changelogs for my memory.)  Probably worth
adding something like: "By default, irq_work is tied to the tick
processing (update_process_times()) but in full NOHZ mode, no tick means
no IRQ work.  In order for IRQ work to be done in full NOHZ mode, a
self-IPI is used to process IRQ work."

Other than the changelog nit, patch looks good, feel free to add

If Russell is OK with this, it can go to his patch system.
