Subject: [PATCH 1/4] nohz: Split extended quiescent state handling from nohz switch
It is assumed that rcu won't be used once we switch to tickless
mode and until we restart the tick. However this is not always
true, as in x86-64 where we dereference the idle notifiers after
the tick is stopped.
To prepare for fixing this, split the tickless mode switching and
RCU extended quiescent state logics.
Make tick_nohz_stop/restart_sched_tick() RCU agnostic but provide
a new pair of APIs tick_nohz_enter/exit_idle() that keep the
old behaviour by handling both the nohz mode and RCU extended
quiescent states, then convert every archs to use these.
Archs that want to switch to RCU extended QS to some custom points
can do it later by changing the parameter in tick_nohz_enter,exit_idle()
to false and call rcu_enter,exit() separately.
