Can't comment this patch, there is no rcu_enter_nohz() in my rcupreempt.h ;)
I'm not sure the code below is up to date, but what I have in
arch/s390/kernel/time.c is:
stop_hz_timer:
cpu_set(cpu, nohz_cpu_mask);
if (rcu_needs_cpu(cpu) || local_softirq_pending()) {
cpu_clear(cpu, nohz_cpu_mask);
return;
}
Don't we need smp_mb() after cpu_set() ?
