    xen: credit2: always mark a tickled pCPU as... tickled!
    
    In fact, whether or not a pCPU has been tickled, and is
    therefore about to re-schedule, is something we look at
    and base decisions on in various places.
    
    So, let's make sure that we do that basing on accurate
    information.
    
    While there, also tweak a little bit smt_idle_mask_clear()
    (used for implementing SMT support), so that it only alter
    the relevant cpumask when there is the actual need for this.
    (This is only for reduced overhead, behavior remains the
    same).
