rcu: Clean up code based on review feedback from Josh Triplett, part 4
These issues identified during an old-fashioned face-to-face code review extending over many hours. This group improves an existing abstraction and introduces two new ones. It also fixes an RCU stall-warning bug found while making the other changes. o Make RCU_INIT_FLAVOR() declare its own variables, removing the need to declare them at each call site. o Create an rcu_for_each_leaf() macro that scans the leaf nodes of the rcu_node tree. o Create an rcu_for_each_node_breadth_first() macro that does a breadth-first traversal of the rcu_node tree, AKA stepping through the array in index-number order. o If all CPUs corresponding to a given leaf rcu_node structure go offline, then any tasks queued on that leaf will be moved to the root rcu_node structure. Therefore, the stall-warning code must dump out tasks queued on the root rcu_node structure as well as those queued on the leaf rcu_node structures. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
