Subject[PATCH rcu 7/7] rcu/nocb: Avoid polling when my_rdp->nocb_head_rdp list is empty
Date
From: Zqiang <qiang1.zhang@intel.com>

Currently, if the 'rcu_nocb_poll' kernel boot parameter is enabled, all
rcuog kthreads enter polling mode. However, if all of a given group
of rcuo kthreads correspond to CPUs that have been de-offloaded, the
corresponding rcuog kthread will nonetheless still wake up periodically,
unnecessarily consuming power and perturbing workloads. Fortunately,
this situation is easily detected by the fact that the rcuog kthread's
CPU's rcu_data structure's ->nocb_head_rdp list is empty.

This commit saves power and avoids unnecessarily perturbing workloads
by putting an rcuog kthread to sleep during any time period when all of
its rcuo kthreads' CPUs are de-offloaded.
