rcu: Avoid self-IPI in sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus() Although sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus() treats the current CPU as being in a quiescent state, it might well migrate to some other CPU before reaching the smp_call_function_single(), which could then result in an unnecessary simulated self-IPI. This commit therefore instead simply refuses to invoke smp_call_function_single() on the current CPU, which causes the later rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult() to report this CPU's quiescent state with less overhead. This also reduces the rcu_exp_handler() function's state space by removing the direct call that this smp_call_function_single() uses to emulate the requested self-IPI. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
