From 4605c0143c6d611b3076025ba3a7e04293c01d69 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Tue, 26 Jun 2012 14:00:48 -0700 Subject: rcu: Adjust debugfs tracing for kthread-based quiescent-state forcing Moving quiescent-state forcing into a kthread dispenses with the need for the ->n_rp_need_fqs field, so this commit removes it.
