ts->next_tick keeps track of the next tick deadline in order to optimize clock programmation on irq exit and avoid redundant clock device writes. Now if ts->next_tick missed an update, we may spuriously miss a clock reprog later as the nohz code is fooled by an obsolete next_tick value. This is what happens here on a specific path: when we observe an expired timer from the nohz update code on irq exit, we perform a soft tick restart which simply fires the closest possible tick without actually exiting the nohz mode and restoring a periodic state. But we forget to update ts->next_tick accordingly. As a result, after the next tick resulting from such soft tick restart, the nohz code sees a stale value on ts->next_tick which doesn't match the clock deadline that just expired. If that obsolete ts->next_tick value happens to collide with the actual next tick deadline to be scheduled, we may spuriously bypass the clock reprogramming. In the worst case, the tick may never fire again. Fix this with a ts->next_tick reset on soft tick restart.
