[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/2] smp_call_function updates for v5.11

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Thu Nov 05 2020 - 18:00:43 EST


Hello!

This series prevents /proc/cpuinfo from piling up quite so many redundant
IPIs, and also avoids IPIing idle CPUs.

1. Avoid cpuinfo-induced IPI pileups.

2. Avoid cpuinfo-induced IPIing of idle CPUs.

Thanx, Paul
