The timekeeping duty is handed over from the outgoing CPU within stop machine. This works well if CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON=n or the tick is in high-res mode. However in low-res dynticks mode, the tick isn't cancelled until the clockevent is shut down, which can happen later. The tick may therefore fire again once IRQs are re-enabled on stop machine and until IRQs are disabled for good upon the last call to idle. That's so many opportunities for a timekeeper to go idle and the outgoing CPU to take over that duty. This is why tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() is called one last time on idle if the CPU is seen offline: so that the timekeeping duty is handed over again in case the CPU has re-taken the duty. This means there are two timekeeping handovers on CPU down hotplug with different undocumented constraints and purposes: 1) A handover on stop machine for !dynticks || highres. All online CPUs are guaranteed to be non-idle and the timekeeping duty can be safely handed-over. The hrtimer tick is cancelled so it is guaranteed that in dynticks mode the outgoing CPU won't take again the duty. 2) A handover on last idle call for dynticks && lowres. Setting the duty to TICK_DO_TIMER_NONE makes sure that a CPU will take over the timekeeping. Prepare for consolidating the handover to a single place (the first one) with shutting down the low-res tick as well from tick_cancel_sched_timer() as well. This will simplify the handover and unify the tick cancellation between high-res and low-res.
