From a47cd880b50e14b0b6f5e9d426ae9a2676c9c474 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Fri, 26 Feb 2010 16:38:56 -0800 Subject: rcu: Fix accelerated grace periods for last non-dynticked CPU It is invalid to invoke __rcu_process_callbacks() with irqs disabled, so do it indirectly via raise_softirq(). This requires a state-machine implementation to cycle through the grace-period machinery the required number of times. Located-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Paul E.
