Subject: [RFC PATCH 6/6] tracing: use sched-RCU instead of SRCU for rcuidle tracepoints
From: Mathieu Desnoyers <mathieu.desnoyers@...icios.com>
Considering that tracer callbacks expect RCU to be watching (for
instance, perf uses rcu_read_lock), we need rcuidle tracepoints to issue
rcu_irq_{enter,exit}_irqson around calls to the callbacks. So there is
no point in using SRCU anymore given that rcuidle tracepoints need to
ensure RCU is watching. Therefore, simply use sched-RCU like normal
tracepoints for rcuidle tracepoints.
