McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Tue, 23 Feb 2016 19:59:51 -0800 rcu: Update rcu_report_qs_rsp() comment The header comment for rcu_report_qs_rsp() was obsolete, dating well before the advent of RCU grace-period kthreads. This commit therefore brings this comment back into alignment with current reality. Reported-by: Lihao Liang <lihao.liang@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
