Subject[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/21] Provide runtime switching of offloaded CPUs
Hello!

Currently, it is necessary to reboot to change a given CPU between
invoking its own RCU callbacks via softirq and offloading callback
invocation to an rcuo kthread. This series allows CPUs that were
initially offloaded to be toggled back and forth at runtime, without
requiring a reboot.

Note that you can boot with all CPUs offloaded, de-offload them
as needed immediately after boot, and thereafter toggled back and
forth as desired.

1. Turn enabled/offload states into a common flag, courtesy of
Frederic Weisbecker.

2. Provide basic callback offloading state machine bits, courtesy
of Frederic Weisbecker.

3. Always init segcblist on CPU up, courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

4. De-offloading CB kthread, courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

5. Don't deoffload an offline CPU with pending work, courtesy of
Frederic Weisbecker.

6. De-offloading GP kthread, courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

7. Re-offload support, courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

8. Shutdown nocb timer on de-offloading, courtesy of Frederic
Weisbecker.

9. Flush bypass before setting SEGCBLIST_SOFTIRQ_ONLY, courtesy of
Frederic Weisbecker.

10. Set SEGCBLIST_SOFTIRQ_ONLY at the very last stage of
de-offloading, courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

11. Only cond_resched() from actual offloaded batch processing,
courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

12. Process batch locally as long as offloading isn't complete,
courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

13. Locally accelerate callbacks as long as offloading isn't complete,
courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

14. Add lockdep_is_cpus_held(), courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

15. Add timer_curr_running(), courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

16. Test runtime toggling of CPUs' callback offloading.

17. Support nocb toggle in TREE01, courtesy of Frederic Weisbecker.

18. Add grace period and task state to show_rcu_nocb_state() output.

19. Add nocb CB kthread list to show_rcu_nocb_state() output.

20. Code-style nits in callback-offloading toggling.

21. Do any deferred nocb wakeups at CPU offline time.

Thanx, Paul
