From 3e9f5c70d85060ff0db71826e2048daffec336e7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2014 18:15:17 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] 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-format-patch failed
