[PATCH tip/core/rcu 8/9] rcu: Fix FIXME in rcu_tasks_kthread()

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue Oct 28 2014 - 18:15:37 EST


From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This commit affines rcu_tasks_kthread() to the housekeeping CPUs
in CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL builds. This is just a default, so systems
administrators are free to put this kthread somewhere else if they wish.
