Subject: [PATCH 4.13 27/35] rcu: Fix up pending cbs check in rcu_prepare_for_idle

4.13-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Neeraj Upadhyay <neeraju@...eaurora.org>

commit 135bd1a230bb69a68c9808a7d25467318900b80a upstream.

The pending-callbacks check in rcu_prepare_for_idle() is backwards.
It should accelerate if there are pending callbacks, but the check
rather uselessly accelerates only if there are no callbacks.  This commit
therefore inverts this check.

Fixes: 15fecf89e46a ("srcu: Abstract multi-tail callback list handling")
