Subject: rcu: Awaken grace-period kthread if too long since FQS
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8c7c4829a81c1838f18c12ce5a3a5c29a08bf0a8;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

rcu: Awaken grace-period kthread if too long since FQS

Recent kernels can fail to awaken the grace-period kthread for
quiescent-state forcing.  This commit is a crude hack that does
a wakeup if a scheduling-clock interrupt sees that it has been
too long since force-quiescent-state (FQS) processing.
