Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu] Create rcutree plugins to handle hotplug CPU
for multi-level trees.
When offlining CPUs from a multi-level tree, there is the possibility
of offlining the last CPU from a given node when there are preempted
RCU read-side critical sections that started life on one of the CPUs on
that node. In this case, the corresponding tasks will be enqueued via
the task_struct's rcu_node_entry list_head onto one of the rcu_node's
blocked_tasks[] lists. These tasks need to be moved somewhere else
so that they will prevent the current grace period from ending.
That somewhere is the root rcu_node.
