Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 09/26] rcu: No-CBs-related sleeps to idle priority

From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...nel.org>

This commit converts the schedule_timeout_interruptible() call used by
RCU's no-CBs grace-period kthreads to schedule_timeout_idle().  This
conversion avoids polluting the load-average with RCU-related sleeping.
