-config NO_IDLE_HZ
-	bool "No HZ timer ticks in idle"
-	help
-	  Switches the regular HZ timer off when the system is going idle.
-	  This helps z/VM to detect that the Linux system is idle. VM can
-	  then "swap-out" this guest which reduces memory usage. It also
-	  reduces the overhead of idle systems.
-
-	  The HZ timer can be switched on/off via /proc/sys/kernel/hz_timer.
-	  hz_timer=0 means HZ timer is disabled. hz_timer=1 means HZ
-	  timer is active.

-	  The HZ timer is switched off in idle by default. That means the
