55 * synchronize_rcu_bh_expedited - Brute-force RCU-bh grace period
57 * Wait for an RCU-bh grace period to elapse, but use a "big hammer"
58 * approach to force the grace period to end quickly. This consumes
59 * significant time on all CPUs and is unfriendly to real-time workloads,
60 * so is thus not recommended for any sort of common-case code. In fact,
61 * if you are using synchronize_rcu_bh_expedited() in a loop, please
62 * restructure your code to batch your updates, and then use a single
63 * synchronize_rcu_bh() instead.
65 * Note that it is illegal to call this function while holding any lock
66 * that is acquired by a CPU-hotplug notifier. And yes, it is also illegal
67 * to call this function from a CPU-hotplug notifier. Failing to observe
68 * these restriction will result in deadlock.
