4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Neeraj Upadhyay <neeraju@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> commit 135bd1a230bb69a68c9808a7d25467318900b80a upstream. The pending-callbacks check in rcu_prepare_for_idle() is backwards. It should accelerate if there are pending callbacks, but the check rather uselessly accelerates only if there are no callbacks. This commit therefore inverts this check. Fixes: 15fecf89e46a ("srcu: Abstract multi-tail callback list handling") Signed-off-by: Neeraj Upadhyay <neeraju@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
