This is normally not a problem, but if each system call does a call_rcu(), those callbacks can stack up. RCU will eventually notice this callback storm, but use of rcu_request_urgent_qs_task() allows the code invoking call_rcu() to give RCU a heads up. This function is not for general use, not yet, anyway. Reported-by: Alexei Starovoitov Signed-off-by: Paul E.
