Subject[PATCH tip/core/rcu 05/21] rcu/nocb: Don't deoffload an offline CPU with pending work
Date
From: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@kernel.org>

Offloaded CPUs do not migrate their callbacks, instead relying on
their rcuo kthread to invoke them. But if the CPU is offline, it
will be running neither its RCU_SOFTIRQ handler nor its rcuc kthread.
This means that de-offloading an offline CPU that still has pending
callbacks will strand those callbacks. This commit therefore refuses
to toggle offline CPUs having pending callbacks.
