+rcu: Avoid having just-onlined CPU resched itself when RCU is idle
+
+CPUs set rdp->qs_pending when coming online to resolve races with
+grace-period start. However, this means that if RCU is idle, the
+just-onlined CPU might needlessly send itself resched IPIs. Adjust
+the online-CPU initialization to avoid this, and also to correctly
+cause the CPU to respond to the current grace period if needed.

-Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Prevent early boot set_need_resched() from
- __rcu_pending()
-
-There isn't a whole lot of point in poking the scheduler before there
-are other tasks to switch to. This commit therefore adds a check
-for rcu_scheduler_fully_active in __rcu_pending() to suppress any
-pre-scheduler calls to set_need_resched(). The downside of this approach
-is additional runtime overhead in a reasonably hot code path.
