tick: Document TICK_ONESHOT config option
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
This option has been selected from arch code as it was assumed that
it's necessary to support oneshot mode clockevent devices. But it's
just a core internal helper to compile tick-oneshot.c if NOHZ or
HIG_RES_TIMERS are selected.
