[PATCH] fixes for rcu_offline_cpu, rcu_move_batch
rcu_offline_cpu and rcu_move_batch have been broken since the list_head's in struct rcu_head and struct rcu_data were replaced with singly-linked lists: CC kernel/rcupdate.o kernel/rcupdate.c: In function `rcu_move_batch': kernel/rcupdate.c:222: warning: passing arg 2 of `list_add_tail' from incompatible pointer type kernel/rcupdate.c: In function `rcu_offline_cpu': kernel/rcupdate.c:239: warning: passing arg 1 of `rcu_move_batch' from incompatible pointer type kernel/rcupdate.c:240: warning: passing arg 1 of `rcu_move_batch' from incompatible pointer type kernel/rcupdate.c:236: warning: label `unlock' defined but not used Kernel crashes when you try to offline a cpu, not surprisingly. It also looks like rcu_move_batch isn't preempt-safe so I touched that up, and got rid of an unused label in rcu_offline_cpu.
