6.1-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 2eb52fa8900e642b3b5054c4bf9776089d2a935f ] The context-switch-time check for RCU Tasks Trace quiescence expects current->trc_reader_special.b.need_qs to be zero, and if so, updates it to TRC_NEED_QS_CHECKED. This is backwards, because if this value is zero, there is no RCU Tasks Trace grace period in flight, an thus no need for a quiescent state. Instead, when a grace period starts, this field is set to TRC_NEED_QS. This commit therefore changes the check from zero to TRC_NEED_QS.
