Subject: [PATCH v5 tip/core/rcu 12/16] rcu: Make TASKS_RCU handle nohz_full= CPUs

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>

Currently TASKS_RCU would ignore a CPU running a task in nohz_full=
usermode execution.  There would be neither a context switch nor a
scheduling-clock interrupt to tell TASKS_RCU that the task in question
had passed through a quiescent state.  The grace period would therefore
extend indefinitely.  This commit therefore makes RCU's dyntick-idle
subsystem record the task_struct structure of the task that is running
in dyntick-idle mode on each CPU.  The TASKS_RCU grace period can
then access this information and record a quiescent state on
behalf of any CPU running in dyntick-idle usermode.
