[PATCH tip/core/rcu 11/20] rcu: More clearly identify grace-period kthread stack dump
From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Feb 26 2018 - 16:53:02 EST
It is not always obvious that the stack dump from a starved grace-period
kthread isn't instead that of a CPU stalling the current grace period.
This commit therefore adds a pr_err() flagging these dumps.
