There is a need to use RCU from interrupt context, but either before rcu_irq_enter() is called or after rcu_irq_exit() is called. If the interrupt occurs from idle, then lockdep-RCU will complain about such uses, as they appear to be illegal uses of RCU from the idle loop. In other environments, RCU_NONIDLE() could be used to properly protect the use of RCU, but RCU_NONIDLE() currently cannot be invoked except from process context. This commit therefore modifies RCU_NONIDLE() to permit its use more globally. Reported-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
