[PATCH tip/core/rcu 6/6] rcu: Adjust FQS offline checks for exact online-CPU detection
From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Sat Jan 14 2017 - 03:55:05 EST
Commit 7ec99de36f40 ("rcu: Provide exact CPU-online tracking for RCU"),
as its title suggests, got rid of RCU's remaining CPU-hotplug timing
guesswork. This commit therefore removes the one-jiffy kludge that was
used to paper over this guesswork.
