Hi Paul,

Thanks for this work, I'll give it a try (I'm just back from a weekend
away from the city). Yes, my code needs a rcu_barrier_sched() so it can
wait for call_rcu_sched completion before it tries to re-use the data
structures at the next modification of the same marker.

I think rcu_barrier_sched should be quite straightforward to implement
if we derive it from kernel/rcupdate.c:rcu_barrier. Actually, couldn't
we just rename rcu_barrier into something else made static (_rcu_barrier)
and call it with a different parameter telling which of call_rcu or
call_rcu_sched to use ?

Something like this :

Add rcu_barrier_sched

Adds rcu_barrier_sched, which uses call_rcu_sched. It wait for each in flight
call_rcu_sched to be completed before it returns.

Could you use __wait_event_interruptible and wake_up_interruptible
instead ? softlockup.c only seems to complain when uninterruptible tasks
are not scheduled for 2 minutes. I guess that when we receive a signal
we could simply go through another loop.
