The Linux kernel coding style says that single-statement blocks should
omit curly braces unless the other leg of the "if" statement has
multiple statements, in which case the curly braces should be included.
This commit fixes RCU's violations of this rule.

It is time to optimize CONFIG_TREE_PREEMPT_RCU's synchronize_rcu()
for uniprocessor optimization, which means that rcu_blocking_is_gp()
can no longer rely on RCU read-side critical sections having disabled
preemption. This commit therefore disables preemption across
rcu_blocking_is_gp()'s scan of the cpu_online_mask.

The __call_rcu() function is a bit overweight, so this commit splits
it into actual enqueuing of and accounting for the callback (__call_rcu())

The __call_rcu() function will invoke the RCU core, for example, if
it detects that the current CPU has too many callbacks. However, this
can happen on an offline CPU that is on its way to the idle loop, in
which case it is an error to invoke the RCU core, and the excess callbacks
will be adopted in any case. This commit therefore adds checks to
__call_rcu() for running on an offline CPU, refraining from invoking
the RCU core in this case.

Although __call_rcu() is handled correctly when called from a momentary
non-idle period, if it is called on a CPU that RCU believes to be idle
on RCU_FAST_NO_HZ kernels, the callback might be indefinitely postponed.
This commit therefore ensures that RCU is aware of the new callback and
has a chance to force the CPU out of dyntick-idle mode when a new callback
is posted.

The _rcu_barrier() function accesses other CPUs' rcu_data structure's

ACCESS_ONCE() is not needed when a CPU accesses its own ->qlen, or

With the advent of __this_cpu_ptr(), it is no longer necessary to pass

This commit therefore computes the rcu_data pointer from the rcu_state

only the pointer to the rcu_state structure. This paves the way for
linking the rcu_state structures together and iterating over them.

The traditional rcu_barrier() implementation has serialized all requests,
regardless of RCU flavor, and also does not coalesce concurrent requests.
In the past, this has been good and sufficient.
However, systems are getting larger and use of rcu_barrier() has been
increasing. This commit therefore introduces a counter-based scheme
that allows _rcu_barrier() calls for the same flavor of RCU to take
advantage of each others' work.

The rcu_node tree array is sized based on compile-time constants,
including NR_CPUS. Although this approach has worked well in the past,
the recent trend by many distros to define NR_CPUS=4096 results in
excessive grace-period-initialization latencies.
This commit therefore substitutes the run-time computed nr_cpu_ids for
the compile-time NR_CPUS when building the tree. This can result in
much of the compile-time-allocated rcu_node array being unused. If
this is a major problem, you are in a specialized situation anyway,
so you can manually adjust the NR_CPUS, RCU_FANOUT, and RCU_FANOUT_LEAF
kernel config parameters.
