Padmanabha Srinivasaiah 1c6c3f2336 rcu-tasks: Fix race in schedule and flush work
[ Upstream commit f75fd4b9221d93177c50dcfde671b2e907f53e86 ]

While booting secondary CPUs, cpus_read_[lock/unlock] is not keeping
online cpumask stable. The transient online mask results in below
calltrace.

This commit therefore fixes this issue by applying a single-CPU
optimization to the RCU Tasks Rude grace-period process.  The key point
here is that the purpose of this RCU flavor is to force a schedule on
each online CPU since some past event.  But the rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp()
function runs in the context of the RCU Tasks Rude's grace-period kthread,
so there must already have been a context switch on the current CPU since
the call to either synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude() or call_rcu_tasks_rude().
So if there is only a single CPU online, RCU Tasks Rude's grace-period
kthread does not need to anything at all.

It turns out that the rcu_tasks_rude_wait_gp() function's call to
schedule_on_each_cpu() causes problems during early boot.  During that
time, there is only one online CPU, namely the boot CPU.  Therefore,
applying this single-CPU optimization fixes early-boot instances of
this problem.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
