McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue, 21 Feb 2012 15:33:34 -0800 rcu: Stop spurious warnings from synchronize_sched_expedited synchronize_sched_expedited() is spamming CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT=y users with an unintended warning from the cpu_is_offline() check: use raw_smp_processor_id() instead of smp_processor_id() there. Because the warning is under a get_online_cpus(), it is not possible for any CPUs to go offline, though it is quite possible that the task might migrate between the raw_smp_processor_id() and the check of cpu_is_offline(). This is not a problem because the task cannot migrate from an offline CPU to an online one or vice versa. The point of the check is to verify that synchronize_sched_expedited() is not called from an offline CPU, for example, from a CPU_DYING notifier, or, more important, from an outgoing CPU making its way from its CPU_DYING notifiers to the idle loop.
