  * synchronize_rcu_expedited - Brute-force RCU grace period
  *
  * Wait for an RCU-preempt grace period, but expedite it.  The basic
- * idea is to invoke synchronize_sched_expedited() to push all the tasks to
- * the ->blkd_tasks lists and wait for this list to drain.  This consumes
- * significant time on all CPUs and is unfriendly to real-time workloads,
- * so is thus not recommended for any sort of common-case code.
- * In fact, if you are using synchronize_rcu_expedited() in a loop,
- * please restructure your code to batch your updates, and then Use a
- * single synchronize_rcu() instead.
+ * idea is to IPI all non-idle non-nohz online CPUs.  The IPI handler
+ * checks whether the CPU is in an RCU-preempt critical section, and
+ * if so, it sets a flag that causes the outermost rcu_read_unlock()
+ * to report the quiescent state.  On the other hand, if the CPU is
+ * not in an RCU read-side critical section, the IPI handler reports
+ * the quiescent state immediately.
+ *
+ * Although this is a greate improvement over previous expedited
+ * implementations, it is still unfriendly to real-time workloads, so is
+ * thus not recommended for any sort of common-case code.  In fact, if
+ * you are using synchronize_rcu_expedited() in a loop, please restructure
+ * your code to batch your updates, and then Use a single synchronize_rcu()
+ * instead.
