tick: Make oneshot broadcast robust vs. CPU offlining

commit c9b5a266b103af873abb9ac03bc3d067702c8f4b upstream.

In periodic mode we remove offline cpus from the broadcast propagation
mask. In oneshot mode we fail to do so. This was not a problem so far,
but the recent changes to the broadcast propagation introduced a
constellation which can result in a NULL pointer dereference.

What happens is:

CPU0			CPU1
			idle()
			  arch_idle()
			    tick_broadcast_oneshot_control(OFF);
			      set cpu1 in tick_broadcast_force_mask
			  if (cpu_offline())
			     arch_cpu_dead()

cpu_dead_cleanup(cpu1)
 cpu1 tickdevice pointer = NULL

broadcast interrupt
  dereference cpu1 tickdevice pointer -> OOPS

We dereference the pointer because cpu1 is still set in
tick_broadcast_force_mask and tick_do_broadcast() expects a valid
cpumask and therefor lacks any further checks.

Remove the cpu from the tick_broadcast_force_mask before we set the
tick device pointer to NULL. Also add a sanity check to the oneshot
broadcast function, so we can detect such issues w/o crashing the
machine.
