[PATCH 14/16] rcu: Locally accelerate callbacks as long as offloading isn't complete

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Fri Oct 23 2020 - 10:48:22 EST


The local callbacks processing checks if some callbacks need
acceleration. Keep that behaviour under nocb lock protection when
rcu_core() executes concurrently with GP/CB kthreads.
