Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 13/20] rcu: Rework preemptible expedited bitmask handling
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
Currently, the rcu_node tree ->expmask bitmasks are initially set to
reflect the online CPUs. This is pointless, because only the CPUs
preempted within RCU read-side critical sections by the preceding
synchronize_sched_expedited() need to be tracked. This commit therefore
instead sets up these bitmasks based on the state of the ->blkd_tasks
lists.
