From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 43a89baecfe200cb4530f42b9fcf904925d6d14a upstream. If a CPU is executing a long series of non-sleeping system calls, RCU grace periods can be delayed for on the order of a couple hundred milliseconds. 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 <ast@xxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
