[PATCH tip/core/rcu 18/30] rcu: Remove dead code from rcu_segcblist_insert_pend_cbs()

From: paulmck
Date: Fri Feb 14 2020 - 18:57:19 EST


From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx>

The rcu_segcblist_insert_pend_cbs() function currently (partially)
initializes the rcu_cblist that it pulls callbacks from. However, all
the resulting stores are dead because all callers pass in the address of
an on-stack cblist that is not used afterwards. This commit therefore
removes this pointless initialization.
