[PATCH] rcu: Add per-CPU rcuc task info to RCU CPU stall warnings
From: Zqiang
Date: Fri Jan 21 2022 - 05:30:21 EST
When the 'use_softirq' be set zero, all RCU_SOFTIRQ processing
be moved to per-CPU rcuc kthreads, if the rcuc kthreads is
being starved, quiescent state can not report in time. the
RCU stall may be triggered. this commit adds a stack trace of
this CPU and dump rcuc kthreads stack to help analyze what
prevents rcuc kthreads from running.
