Subject[PATCH] arm64/smp: Move rcu_cpu_starting() earlier
Date
The call to rcu_cpu_starting() in secondary_start_kernel() is not early
enough in the CPU-hotplug onlining process, which results in lockdep
splats as follows:

WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
-----------------------------
kernel/locking/lockdep.c:3497 RCU-list traversed in non-reader section!!

other info that might help us debug this:

RCU used illegally from offline CPU!
rcu_scheduler_active = 1, debug_locks = 1
no locks held by swapper/1/0.

Call trace:
dump_backtrace+0x0/0x3c8
show_stack+0x14/0x60
dump_stack+0x14c/0x1c4

__cpuinfo_store_cpu+0x71c/0x868
cpuinfo_store_cpu+0x2c/0xc8
secondary_start_kernel+0x244/0x318

This is avoided by moving the call to rcu_cpu_starting up near the
beginning of the secondary_start_kernel() function.
