#1350949 — [PATCH] pps: kc: fix non-tickless system config dependency

Subject[PATCH] pps: kc: fix non-tickless system config dependency
Message-ID<r9olj-14L-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
CONFIG_NO_HZ currently only sets the default value
of dynticks config so if PPS kernel consumer needs
periodic timer ticks it should depend on
!CONFIG_NO_HZ_COMMON instead of !CONFIG_NO_HZ.

Otherwise it is possible to enable it even on
tickless system which has CONFIG_NO_HZ not set and
CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE (or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL) set.
