rcu: Make expedited RCU CPU selection avoid unnecessary stores
This commit reworks the first loop in sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus() to avoid doing unnecssary stores to other CPUs' rcu_data structures. This speeds up that first loop by roughly a factor of two on an old x86 system. In the case where the system is mostly idle, this loop incurs a large fraction of the overhead of the synchronize_rcu_expedited(). There is less benefit on busy systems because the overhead of the smp_call_function_single() in the second loop dominates in that case. However, it is not unusual to do configuration chances involving RCU grace periods (both expedited and normal) while the system is mostly idle, so this optimization is worth doing. While we are in the area, this commit also adds parentheses to arguments used by the for_each_leaf_node_possible_cpu() macro. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <[email protected]>
