The rcu_do_batch() function that invokes callbacks for TREE_RCU and TREE_PREEMPT_RCU normally throttles callback invocation to avoid degrading scheduling latency. However, as long as the CPU would otherwise be idle, there is no downside to continuing to invoke any callbacks that have passed through their grace periods. In fact, processing such callbacks in a timely manner has the benefit of increasing the probability that the CPU can enter the power-saving dyntick-idle mode. Therefore, this commit allows callback invocation to continue beyond the preset limit as long as the scheduler does not have some other task to run and as long as context is that of the idle task or the relevant RCU kthread.
