[PATCH tip/core/rcu 03/10] rcu/nocb: Make __call_rcu_nocb_wake() safe for many callbacks

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Thu Aug 01 2019 - 19:17:25 EST


It might be hard to imagine having more than two billion callbacks
queued on a single CPU's ->cblist, but someone will do it sometime.
This commit therefore makes __call_rcu_nocb_wake() handle this situation
by upgrading local variable "len" from "int" to "long".
