McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Mon, 29 Jun 2020 11:58:50 -07:00 rcu: No-CBs-related sleeps to idle priority This commit converts the schedule_timeout_interruptible() call used by RCU's no-CBs grace-period kthreads to schedule_timeout_idle(). This conversion avoids polluting the load-average with RCU-related sleeping. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
