[PATCH tip/core/rcu 18/20] rcu: Trace expedited GP delays due to transitioning CPUs
From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Feb 26 2018 - 16:55:55 EST
If a CPU is transitioning to or from offline state, an expedited
grace period may undergo a timed wait. This timed wait can unduly
delay grace periods, so this commit adds a trace statement to make
it visible.
