It was found that a "suspicious RCU usage" lockdep warning was issued with the rcu_read_lock() call in update_sibling_cpumasks(). It is because the update_cpumasks_hier() function may sleep. So we have to release the RCU lock, call update_cpumasks_hier() and reacquire it afterward. Also add a percpu_rwsem_assert_held() in update_sibling_cpumasks() instead of stating that in the comment.

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.
