      rcu: Use timer as backstop for NOCB deferred wakeups · 8be6e1b1
      Paul E. McKenney authored
      The handling of RCU's no-CBs CPUs has a maintenance headache, namely
      that if call_rcu() is invoked with interrupts disabled, the rcuo kthread
      wakeup must be defered to a point where we can be sure that scheduler
      locks are not held.  Of course, there are a lot of code paths leading
      from an interrupts-disabled invocation of call_rcu(), and missing any
      one of these can result in excessive callback-invocation latency, and
      potentially even system hangs.
      
      This commit therefore uses a timer to guarantee that the wakeup will
      eventually occur.  If one of the deferred-wakeup points kicks in, then
      the timer is simply cancelled.
      
      This commit also fixes up an incomplete removal of commits that were
      intended to plug remaining exit paths, which should have the added
      benefit of reducing the overhead of RCU's context-switch hooks.  In
      addition, it simplifies leader-to-follower callback-list handoff by
      introducing locking.  The call_rcu()-to-leader handoff continues to
      use atomic operations in order to maintain good real-time latency for
      common-case use of call_rcu().
