[PATCH tip/core/rcu 8/9] arm: Use common outgoing-CPU-notification code

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue May 12 2015 - 17:53:08 EST


From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This commit removes the open-coded CPU-offline notification with new
common code. In particular, this change avoids calling scheduler code
using RCU from an offline CPU that RCU is ignoring. This is a minimal
change. A more intrusive change might invoke the cpu_check_up_prepare()
and cpu_set_state_online() functions at CPU-online time, which would
allow onlining throw an error if the CPU did not go offline properly.
