Subject[PATCH 1/1] rcu/tree: add emergency pool for headless case
Date
Maintain an emergency pool for each CPU with some
extra objects. There is read-only sysfs attribute,
the name is "rcu_nr_emergency_objs". It reflects
the size of the pool. As for now the default value
is 3.

The pool is populated when low memory condition is
detected. Please note it is only for headless case
it means when the regular SLAB is not able to serve
any request, the pool is used.
