[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/5] Miscellaneous fixes for 4.9
From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Aug 22 2016 - 11:29:54 EST
Hello!
This series contains miscellaneous fixes:
1. Fix a soft lockup in the RCU's callback-offload (rcuo) kthreads,
courtesy of Ding Tianhong.
2. Use rcu_gp_kthread_wake() to wake up grace period kthreads,
avoiding spurious/redundant wakeups, courtesy of Jisheng Zhang.
3. Make wake_up_nohz_cpu() handle CPUs going offline.
4. Don't use modular infrastructure in non-modular code, courtesy
of Paul Gortmaker.
5. Avoid redundant quiescent-state chasing by more carefully
initializing flags for newly onlined CPUs.
Thanx, Paul
