Commit 4a81e832 ("Reduce overhead of cond_resched() checks for RCU") handles the error case where a nohz_full loops indefinitely in the kernel with the scheduling-clock interrupt disabled. However, this handling includes IPIing the CPU running the offending loop, which is not what we want for real-time workloads. And there are starting to be real-time CPU-bound in-kernel workloads, and these must be handled without IPIing the CPU, at least not in the common case. Therefore, this situation can no longer be dismissed as an error case. This commit therefore splits the handling out, so that the setting of bits in the per-CPU rcu_sched_qs_mask variable is done relatively early, but if the problem persists, resched_cpu() is eventually used to IPI the CPU containing the offending loop. Assuming that in-kernel CPU-bound loops used by real-time tasks contain frequent calls cond_resched_rcu_qs() (as in more than once per few tens of milliseconds), the real-time tasks will never be IPIed.

The header comment for rcu_report_qs_rsp() was obsolete, dating well before the advent of RCU grace-period kthreads. This commit therefore brings this comment back into alignment with current reality. Reported-by:

Pull MIPS updates from Ralf Baechle: "This is the main pull request for MIPS for 4.5 plus some 4.4 fixes. The executive summary: - ATH79 platform improvments, use DT bindings for the ATH79 USB PHY. - Avoid useless rebuilds for zboot. - jz4780: Add NEMC, BCH and NAND device tree nodes - Initial support for the MicroChip's DT platform. As all the device drivers are missing this is still of limited use. - Some Loongson3 cleanups. - The unavoidable whitespace polishing. - Reduce clock skew when synchronizing the CPU cycle counters on CPU startup. - Add MIPS R6 fixes. - Lots of cleanups across arch/mips as fallout from KVM. - Lots of minor fixes and changes for IEEE 754-2008 support to the FPU emulator / fp-assist software. - Minor Ralink, BCM47xx and bcm963xx platform support improvments. - Support SMP on BCM63168" * 'upstream' of git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/ralf/upstream-linus: (84 commits) MIPS: zboot: Add support for serial debug using the PROM MIPS: zboot: Avoid useless rebuilds MIPS: BMIPS: Enable ARCH_WANT_OPTIONAL_GPIOLIB MIPS: bcm63xx: nvram: Remove unused bcm63xx_nvram_get_psi_size() function MIPS: bcm963xx: Update bcm_tag field image_sequence MIPS: bcm963xx: Move extended flash address to bcm_tag header file MIPS: bcm963xx: Move Broadcom BCM963xx image tag data structure MIPS: bcm63xx: nvram: Use nvram structure definition from header file MIPS: bcm963xx: Add Broadcom BCM963xx board nvram data structure MAINTAINERS: Add KVM for MIPS entry MIPS: KVM: Add missing newline to kvm_err() MIPS: Move KVM specific opcodes into asm/inst.h MIPS: KVM: Use cacheops.h definitions MIPS: Break down cacheops.h definitions MIPS: Use EXCCODE_ constants with set_except_vector() MIPS: Update trap codes MIPS: Move Cause.ExcCode trap codes to mipsregs.h MIPS: KVM: Make kvm_mips_{init,exit}() static MIPS: KVM: Refactor added offsetof()s MIPS: KVM: Convert EXPORT_SYMBOL to _GPL ... -

If we detect that there is nothing to do just set the flag and do not check if it was already set before. Races really do not matter. If the flag is set by any code then the shepherd will start dealing with the situation and reenable the vmstat workers when necessary again. Since commit 0eb77e98 ("vmstat: make vmstat_updater deferrable again and shut down on idle") quiet_vmstat might update cpu_stat_off and mark a particular cpu to be handled by vmstat_shepherd. This might trigger a VM_BUG_ON in vmstat_update because the work item might have been sleeping during the idle period and see the cpu_stat_off updated after the wake up. The VM_BUG_ON is therefore misleading and no more appropriate. Moreover it doesn't really suite any protection from real bugs because vmstat_shepherd will simply reschedule the vmstat_work anytime it sees a particular cpu set or vmstat_update would do the same from the worker context directly. Even when the two would race the result wouldn't be incorrect as the counters update is fully idempotent. Reported-by:

The header arch/mips/kvm/opcode.h defines a few extra opcodes which aren't in arch/mips/include/uapi/asm/inst.h. There's nothing KVM specific about them, so lets move them into inst.h where they belong and delete the header. Note that mfmcz_op is renamed to mfmc0_op to match the instruction set manual, and wait_op was already added to inst.h in commit b0a3eae2 ("MIPS: inst.h: define COP0 wait op"), merged in v3.16-rc1.
