From a48621e98a0f83475a29724914d8b2d3c8cf4d73 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Wed, 20 Jun 2012 17:07:14 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Move RCU grace-period cleanup into kthread As a first step towards allowing grace-period cleanup to be preemptible, this commit moves the RCU grace-period cleanup into the same kthread that is now used to initialize grace periods. This is needed to keep scheduling latency down to a dull roar.
