   *
   * Check debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() to prevent false positives during boot
   * and while lockdep is disabled.
+  *
+  * Note that if the CPU is in an extended quiescent state, for example,
+  * if the CPU is in dyntick-idle mode, then rcu_read_lock_held() returns
+  * false even if the CPU did an rcu_read_lock().  The reason for this is
+  * that RCU ignores CPUs that are in extended quiescent states, so such
+  * a CPU is effectively never in an RCU read-side critical section
+  * regardless of what RCU primitives it invokes.  This state of affairs
+  * is required -- RCU would otherwise need to periodically wake up
+  * dyntick-idle CPUs, which would defeat the whole purpose of dyntick-idle
+  * mode.
