In the CPU-offline process, it calls mmdrop() after idle entry and the
subsequent call to cpuhp_report_idle_dead(). Once execution passes the
call to rcu_report_dead(), RCU is ignoring the CPU, which results in
lockdep complaints when mmdrop() uses RCU from either memcg or
debugobjects. Fix it by scheduling mmdrop() on another online CPU.
=============================
WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
-----------------------------
kernel/workqueue.c:710 RCU or wq_pool_mutex should be held!
other info that might help us debug this:
RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
