[PATCH 04/16] rcu: Remove redundant check for an online CPU

From: Pranith Kumar
Date: Wed Jul 23 2014 - 01:13:48 EST


rcu_prcess_callbacks() is the softirq handler for RCU which is raised from
invoke_rcu_core() which is called from __call_rcu_core().

Each of these three functions checks if the cpu is online. We can remove the
redundant ones. This commit removes one of these redundant check.
