From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paul.mcken...@linaro.org> If a given CPU avoids the idle loop but also avoids starting a new RCU grace period for a full minute, RCU can issue spurious RCU CPU stall warnings. This commit fixes this issue by adding a check for ongoing grace period to avoid these spurious stall warnings.
