migrate
disable patchset is applied since it removes a restriction.
Scott Wood (3):
rcu: Acquire RCU lock when disabling BHs
sched: migrate_enable: Use sleeping_lock to indicate involuntary sleep
rcu: Disable use_softirq on PREEMPT_RT
include/linux/rcupdate.h | 4
include/linux/
Without this, rcu_note_context_switch() will complain if an RCU read
lock is held when migrate_enable() calls stop_one_cpu().

v2: Added comment.
If my migrate disable changes aren't taken, then pin_current_cpu()
will also need to use sleeping_lock_inc() be
that wouldn't allow blocked BH disablers to be boosted.
Fix this by calling rcu_read_lock() from local_bh_disable(), and update
rcu_read_lock_bh_held() accordingly.

Calling calc_load_nohz_start() regardless of whether the tick is already
stopped addresses the issue when going idle. Tracking load changes when
not going idle (e.g. multiple SCHED_FIFO tasks coming and going) is not
addressed by this patch.

this won't help with local_bh_disable()
(and thus rcutorture) unless something similar is done with the recently

If migrate_enable() is called while a task is preparing to sleep

progress isn't going to beat the timeout. I believe I've only
seen this when running heavy loads in addition to rcutorture (though I've
done more testing under load than without); I don't know whether the
forward progress tests are expected to work under such load.
