From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> There are now architectures for which all deep-idle and entry-exit functions are properly inlined or marked noinstr. Such architectures do not need synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude(), or will not once RCU Tasks has been modified to pay attention to idle tasks. This commit therefore allows a CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_NOINSTR_MARKINGS Kconfig option to turn synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() into a no-op. To facilitate testing, kernels built by rcutorture scripting will enable RCU Tasks Trace even on systems that do not need it. [ paulmck: Apply Peter Zijlstra feedback. ] Signed-off-by: Paul E.
