[PATCH v2 03/21] context_tracking: Remove rcu_task_trace_heavyweight_{enter,exit}()
Posted by Paul E. McKenney 5 hours ago
Because SRCU-fast does not use IPIs for its grace periods, there is
no need for real-time workloads to switch to an IPI-free mode, and
there is in turn no need for either rcu_task_trace_heavyweight_enter()
or rcu_task_trace_heavyweight_exit().  This commit therefore removes them.
