SubjectRe: [PATCH v2] rcu: Deoffload rdp if rcuop/rcuog kthreads spawn failed
Hi Zqiang,

Thanks for poking into this! Several comments:

How about:

WARN_ON_ONCE((rdp->cpu != raw_smp_processor_id()) && cpu_online(cpu));

Please instead lock nocb_gp_kthread_mutex right above the
rdp_gp->nocb_gp_kthread check below. It doesn't look needed before that.

Better use a new wake_gp variable for clarity.

And you can unlock nocb_gp_kthread_mutex here.

Please do the locking order change in a separate patch. It's a significant
change on its own.

I believe you don't need to hold nocb_gp_kthread_mutex here. I think
a simple WARN_ON_ONCE(!rdp_gp->nocb_gp_kthread) is enough because it's
unexpected here.

You can use wake_gp here too.

Thanks!
