Yeah, well, the CPU has reached a point in the offline process where it
cannot use the scheduler, so...

I was afraid of that...

Unfortunately, no. The rcu_barrier() function can block, which is
not permitted when preemption is disabled, as it is at this point
in the idle loop.
So polling loop, then?
