[PATCH rcu 09/32] rcu-tasks: Handle idle tasks for recently offlined CPUs

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Mon Jun 20 2022 - 18:55:33 EST


This commit identifies idle tasks for recently offlined CPUs as residing
in a quiescent state. This is safe only because CPU-hotplug operations
are excluded during these checks.
