tick: Assume the tick can't be stopped in NOHZ_MODE_INACTIVE mode

Browse source

The full-nohz update function checks if the nohz mode is active before
proceeding. It considers one exception though: if the tick is already
stopped even though the nohz mode is inactive, it still moves on in
order to update/restart the tick if needed.

However in order for the tick to be stopped, the nohz_mode has to be
either NOHZ_MODE_LOWRES or NOHZ_MODE_HIGHRES. Therefore it doesn't make
sense to test if the tick is stopped before verifying NOHZ_MODE_INACTIVE
mode.

Remove the needless related condition.
