From: Paul E.

A new fqs_active flag in the rcu_state structure is used to trace whether or not force_quiescent_state() is active, and this new flag is tested by rcu_start_gp(). If the CPU that closed out the last grace period needs another grace period, this new grace period may be delayed up to one scheduling-clock tick, but it will eventually get started.
