Chris Friesen notice that rcuc/X kthreads were consuming CPU even on NOCB CPUs. This makes no sense because the only purpose or these kthreads is to invoke normal (non-offloaded) callbacks, of which there will never be any on NOCB CPUs. This problem was due to a bug in cpu_has_callbacks_ready_to_invoke(), which should have been checking ->nxttail[RCU_NEXT_TAIL] for NULL, but which was instead (incorrectly) checking ->nxttail[RCU_DONE_TAIL]. Because ->nxttail[RCU_DONE_TAIL] is never NULL, the only effect is to cause the rcuc/X kthread to execute when it should not do so. This commit therefore checks ->nxttail[RCU_NEXT_TAIL], which is NULL for NOCB CPUs. Reported-by: Chris Friesen <chris.friesen@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
