Subject: [PATCH] rcu/nocb: Optimize kthreads and rdp initialization
References: bnc#1189998 (PREEMPT_RT prerequisite backports)
Patch-mainline: v5.17-rc0
Git-commit: a81aeaf7a1de51400374a8e3982a3cc3ff130dd1
Currently cpumask_available() is used to prevent from unwanted NOCB
initialization. However if neither "rcu_nocbs=" nor "nohz_full="
parameters are passed to a kernel built with CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK=n,
the initialization path is still taken, running through all sorts of
needless operations and iterations on an empty cpumask.
Fix this by relying on a real initialization state instead. This also
optimizes kthread creation, preventing needless iteration over all online
CPUs when the kernel is booted without any offloaded CPUs.
