Paul E. McKenney 7cfe191a1d rcu-tasks: Wait for trc_read_check_handler() IPIs
commit cbe0d8d914 upstream.

Currently, RCU Tasks Trace initializes the trc_n_readers_need_end counter
to the value one, increments it before each trc_read_check_handler()
IPI, then decrements it within trc_read_check_handler() if the target
task was in a quiescent state (or if the target task moved to some other
CPU while the IPI was in flight), complaining if the new value was zero.
The rationale for complaining is that the initial value of one must be
decremented away before zero can be reached, and this decrement has not
yet happened.

Except that trc_read_check_handler() is initiated with an asynchronous
smp_call_function_single(), which might be significantly delayed.  This
can result in false-positive complaints about the counter reaching zero.

This commit therefore waits for in-flight IPI handlers to complete before
decrementing away the initial value of one from the trc_n_readers_need_end
counter.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
