rcu: Don't invoke try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled
[ Upstream commit c583bcb8f5edd48c1798798e341f78afb9bf4f6f ]
The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function requires that
interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts disabled from
rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not enabled as expected"
diagnostic. This commit therefore updates rcu_print_task_stall()
to accumulate a list of the first few tasks while holding the current
leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock, then releases that lock and only then
uses try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to attempt to obtain per-task
detailed information. Of course, as soon as ->lock is released, the
task might exit, so the get_task_struct() function is used to prevent
the task structure from going away in the meantime.
