3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Thomas Gleixner <redacted>

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.
