[PATCH tip/core/rcu 14/15] rcu: Abstract rcu_start_future_gp() from rcu_nocb_wait_gp()

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Mar 18 2013 - 17:37:20 EST


From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paul.mckenney@xxxxxxxxxx>

CPUs going idle will need to record the need for a future grace
period, but won't actually need to block waiting on it. This commit
therefore splits rcu_start_future_gp(), which does the recording, from
rcu_nocb_wait_gp(), which now invokes rcu_start_future_gp() to do the
recording, after which rcu_nocb_wait_gp() does the waiting.
