[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 047/107] ARM: 8393/1: smp: Fix suspicious RCU usage with ipi tracepoints

[Kamal Mostafa]

3.19.8-ckt5 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 398f74569cebbf06bc6b069442bcd0e9616ca465 upstream.

John Stultz reports an RCU splat on boot with ARM ipi trace
events enabled.

===============================
[ INFO: suspicious RCU usage. ]
4.1.0-rc7-00033-gb5bed2f #153 Not tainted
-------------------------------
include/trace/events/ipi.h:68 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

RCU used illegally from idle CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 0
RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
no locks held by swapper/0/0.

At this point in the IPI handling path we haven't called
irq_enter() yet, so RCU doesn't know that we're about to exit
idle and properly warns that we're using RCU from an idle CPU.
Use trace_ipi_entry_rcuidle() instead of trace_ipi_entry() so
that RCU is informed about our exit from idle.
