[PATCH] rcu: Avoid to modify mask_ofl_ipi in sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus()

From: Boqun Feng
Date: Tue Oct 08 2019 - 01:02:07 EST


"mask_ofl_ipi" is used for iterate CPUs which IPIs are needed to send
to, however in the IPI sending loop, "mask_ofl_ipi" along with another
variable "mask_ofl_test" might also get modified to record which CPU's
quiesent state can be reported by sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus(). Two
variables seems to be redundant for such a propose, so this patch clean
things a little by solely using "mask_ofl_test" for recording and
"mask_ofl_ipi" for iteration. This would improve the readibility of the
IPI sending loop in sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus().
