Subject: rcu: Prevent soft-lockup complaints about no-CBs CPUs
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=353af9c9a866b07492b15a4efd18ec93123d3a1d;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git

rcu: Prevent soft-lockup complaints about no-CBs CPUs

The wait_event() at the head of the rcu_nocb_kthread() can result in
soft-lockup complaints if the CPU in question does not register RCU
callbacks for an extended period.  This commit therefore changes
the wait_event() to a wait_event_interruptible().
