Subject[PATCH] rcu: fix a deadlock caused by not release rcu_node->lock
Date
From: Yanfei Xu <yanfei.xu@windriver.com>

rcu_node->lock isn't released in rcu_print_task_stall() if the rcu_node
don't contain tasks which blocking the GP. However this rcu_node->lock
will be used again in rcu_dump_cpu_stacks() soon while the ndetected is
non-zero. As a result the cpu will hung by this deadlock.
