[PATCH tip/core/rcu 6/9] sched: Make resched_cpu() unconditional

["Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

The current implementation of synchronize_sched_expedited() incorrectly
assumes that resched_cpu() is unconditional, which it is not.  This means
that synchronize_sched_expedited() can hang when resched_cpu()'s trylock
fails as follows (analysis by Neeraj Upadhyay):

o	CPU1 is waiting for expedited wait to complete:

	sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus
	     rdp->exp_dynticks_snap & 0x1   // returns 1 for CPU5
	     IPI sent to CPU5

	synchronize_sched_expedited_wait
		 ret = swait_event_timeout(rsp->expedited_wq,
					   sync_rcu_preempt_exp_done(rnp_root),
					   jiffies_stall);

	expmask = 0x20, CPU 5 in idle path (in cpuidle_enter())

o	CPU5 handles IPI and fails to acquire rq lock.

	Handles IPI
	     sync_sched_exp_handler
		 resched_cpu
		     returns while failing to try lock acquire rq->lock
		 need_resched is not set

o	CPU5 calls  rcu_idle_enter() and as need_resched is not set, goes to
	idle (schedule() is not called).

o	CPU 1 reports RCU stall.

Given that resched_cpu() is now used only by RCU, this commit fixes the
assumption by making resched_cpu() unconditional.
