Further testing with false negatives suppressed by commit 293e2421fe25
("rcu: Remove superfluous versions of rcu_read_lock_sched_held()")
identified a few more unprotected uses of RCU from the idle loop.
Because RCU actively ignores idle-loop code (for energy-efficiency
reasons, among other things), using RCU from the idle loop can result
in too-short grace periods, in turn resulting in arbitrary misbehavior.
The affected functions are smp_cross_call() and rpm_suspend().
The resulting lockdep-RCU splats are as follows:

RCU used illegally from extended quiescent state!
