From 5257514d8885b2ebc11bf359ea1527282b47a5fd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Tue, 24 Apr 2018 11:03:39 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Make expedited grace period use direct call on last leaf During expedited grace-period initialization, a work item is scheduled for each leaf rcu_node structure. However, that initialization code is itself (normally) executing from a workqueue, so one of the leaf rcu_node structures could just as well be handled by that pre-existing workqueue, and with less overhead. This commit therefore uses a shiny new rcu_is_leaf_node() macro to execute the last leaf rcu_node structure's initialization directly from the pre-existing workqueue. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
