[PATCH tip/core/rcu 02/16] rcu: Make expedited RCU-preempt stall warnings count accurately

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue Apr 12 2016 - 11:29:30 EST


Currently, synchronize_sched_expedited_wait() simply sets the ndetected
variable to the rcu_print_task_exp_stall() return value. This means
that if the last rcu_node structure has no stalled tasks, record of
any stalled tasks in previous rcu_node structures is lost, which can
in turn result in failure to dump out the blocking rcu_node structures.
Or could, had the test been correct.

This commit therefore adds the return value of rcu_print_task_exp_stall()
to ndetected and corrects the later test for ndetected.
