rcu: Prevent useless FQS scan after all CPUs have checked in
The force_qs_rnp() function checks for ->qsmask being all zero, that is, all CPUs for the current rcu_node structure having already passed through quiescent states. But with RCU-preempt, this is not sufficient to report quiescent states further up the tree, so there are further checks that can initiate RCU priority boosting and also for races with CPU-hotplug operations. However, if neither of these further checks apply, the code proceeds to carry out a useless scan of an all-zero ->qsmask. This commit therefore adds code to release the current rcu_node structure's lock and continue on to the next rcu_node structure, thereby avoiding this useless scan. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
