[PATCH tip/core/rcu 07/21] rcu: Make rcu_future_needs_gp() check all ->need_future_gps[] elements

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Sun Apr 22 2018 - 23:06:31 EST


Currently, the rcu_future_needs_gp() function checks only the current
element of the ->need_future_gps[] array, which might miss elements that
were offset from the expected element, for example, due to races with
the start or the end of a grace period. This commit therefore makes
rcu_future_needs_gp() use the need_any_future_gp() macro to check all
of the elements of this array.
