Hi,
I see the following log message when running a qemu test for 'beagle'
with omap2plus_defconfig.
===============================

other info that might help us debug this:
RCU used illegally from idle CPU!

RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!

bisect points to commit 'rcu: Remove superfluous versions of
rcu_read_lock_sched_held()'. Bisect log is attached.
I believe that the real fix is not a revert of that commit, but rather
that some of the tracing statements need an "_rcuidle" suffix.
Something like the following (untested, probably does not build) patch.
Thanx, Paul

It does build. After applying it, I get a different traceback.

After making the same change in _pwrdm_state_switch(), the traceback is gone
from my tests (beagle, beagle-xm, and overo-tobi).
Very good!
(And yes, you normally find these one at a time...)
Are you going to submit a formal patch ?
Thanks,
Guenter
