(This is not an issue for CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE=y because there are no running -user processes to observe slight drifts in clock rate.) Therefore, the -boot CPU is prohibited from entering adaptive-ticks mode. Specifying a -"nohz_full=" mask that includes the boot CPU will result in a boot-time -error message, and the boot CPU will be removed from the mask.
