When __call_rcu_core() notices excessive numbers of callbacks pending on the current CPU, we know that at least one of them is not yet classified, namely the one that was just now queued. Therefore, it is not necessary to invoke rcu_start_gp() and thus not necessary to acquire the root rcu_node structure's ->lock. This commit therefore replaces the rcu_start_gp() with rcu_accelerate_cbs(), thus replacing an acquisition of the root rcu_node structure's ->lock with that of this CPU's leaf rcu_node structure. This decreases contention on the root rcu_node structure's ->lock. Reported-by: Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
