[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 042/128] idle: Prevent late-arriving interrupts from disrupting offline

[ Upstream commit e78a7614f3876ac649b3df608789cb6ef74d0480 ]

Scheduling-clock interrupts can arrive late in the CPU-offline process,
after idle entry and the subsequent call to cpuhp_report_idle_dead().
Once execution passes the call to rcu_report_dead(), RCU is ignoring
the CPU, which results in lockdep complaints when the interrupt handler
uses RCU:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
5.2.0-rc1+ #681 Not tainted
-----------------------------
kernel/sched/fair.c:9542 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
no locks held by swapper/5/0.

This happens rarely, but can be forced by happen more often by
placing delays in cpuhp_report_idle_dead() following the call to
rcu_report_dead(). With this in place, the following rcutorture
scenario reproduces the problem within a few minutes:

tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --cpus 8 --duration 5 --kconfig "CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y" --configs "TREE04"

This commit uses the crude but effective expedient of moving the disabling
of interrupts within the idle loop to precede the cpu_is_offline()
check. It also invokes tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick() instead of
tick_nohz_idle_stop_tick_protected() to shut off the scheduling-clock
interrupt.
