McKenney Date: Tue, 4 Nov 2014 02:15:17 +0000 (-0800) Subject: rcu: Don't spawn rcub kthreads on root rcu_node structure X-Git-Tag: omap-for-v4.1/prcm-dts-mfd-syscon-fix~166^2^2^3~6 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3e9f5c70d85060ff0db71826e2048daffec336e7;p=pandora-kernel.git rcu: Don't spawn rcub kthreads on root rcu_node structure Now that offlining CPUs no longer moves leaf rcu_node structures' ->blkd_tasks lists to the root, there is no way for the root rcu_node structure's ->blkd_task list to be nonempty, unless the root node is also the sole leaf node. This commit therefore refrains from creating an rcub kthread for the root rcu_node structure unless it is also the sole leaf. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney --- Reading git-diff-tree failed
