So rq->rcu_read_lock_count contains the sum of the counts of all
tasks that were scheduled away from this CPU.

What happens in face of the following sequence of events?
Assume that all tasks stay on CPU 0 for the moment.

o	Task A does rcu_read_lock().

o	Task A is preempted.  rq->rcu_read_lock_count is nonzero.

o	Task B runs and does rcu_read_lock().

o	Task B is preempted (perhaps because it dropped the lock
	that was causing it to have high priority).  Regardless of
	the reason for the preemption, rq->rcu_read_lock_count is
	nonzero.

o	Task C runs and does rcu_read_lock().

o	Task C is preempted.  rq->rcu_read_lock_count is nonzero.

o	Task A runs again, and does rcu_read_unlock().

o	Task A is preempted.  rq->rcu_read_lock_count is nonzero.

o	Task D runs and does rcu_read_lock().

o	Task D is preempted.  rq->rcu_read_lock_count is nonzero.

And so on.  As long as at least one of the preempted tasks is in an
RCU critical section, you never do your forward_waiting_rcu_jobs(),
and the grace period goes on forever.  Or at least until you OOM the
machine.

So what am I missing here?

I could imagine introducing a pair of counters per runqueue, but then
we end up with the same issues with counter-flip that we have now.

Another question -- what happens if a given CPU stays idle?  Wouldn't
the callbacks then just start piling up on that CPU?

So if I have the right (or wrong) pattern of task migrations, the RCU
callbacks never get to their originating CPU?

Alternatively, if the task residing in the RCU read-side critical section
is forwarded around the loop of CPUs, callbacks circulating around this
loop might execute before the RCU read-side critical section completes.

But doesn't this have the same impact on latency as disabling preemption
in rcu_read_lock() and then re-enabling it in rcu_read_unlock()?

Also, doesn't this circular data structure need to handle CPU hotplug?

I am beginning to think that it will not be at all simple by the time I
code up all the required fixups.  Or am I missing something?
