Subject: do CPU_DEAD migrating under read_lock(tasklist) instead of write_lock_irq(tasklist)
From: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@xxxxxxxxxx>
Currently move_task_off_dead_cpu() is called under
write_lock_irq(tasklist). This means it can't use task_lock() which is
needed to improve migrating to take task's ->cpuset into account.
Change the code to call move_task_off_dead_cpu() with irqs enabled, and
change migrate_live_tasks() to use read_lock(tasklist).
This all is a preparation for the futher changes proposed by Cliff Wickman, see
