[ Upstream commit 7663ad9a5dbcc27f3090e6bfd192c7e59222709f ]

RCU managed to grow a few noinstr violations:

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: rcu_dynticks_eqs_enter()+0x0: call to rcu_dynticks_task_trace_enter() leaves .noinstr.text section
  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit()+0xe: call to rcu_dynticks_task_trace_exit() leaves .noinstr.text section

Fix them by adding __always_inline to the relevant trivial functions.

Also replace the noinstr with __always_inline for the existing
rcu_dynticks_task_*() functions since noinstr would force noinline
them, even when empty, which seems silly.

Fixes: 7d0c9c50c5a1 ("rcu-tasks: Avoid IPIing userspace/idle tasks if kernel is so built")

[ Upstream commit fed31a4dd3adb5455df7c704de2abb639a1dc1c0 ]

This commit fixes several typos where CONFIG_TASKS_RCU_TRACE should
instead be CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU.  Among other things, these typos
could cause CONFIG_TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB=y kernels to suffer from
memory-ordering bugs that could result in false-positive quiescent
states and too-short grace periods.

Now that -&gt;nocb_timer and -&gt;nocb_bypass_timer have become quite similar,
this commit merges them together.  A new RCU_NOCB_WAKE_BYPASS wake level
is introduced.  As a result, timers perform all kinds of deferred wake
ups but other deferred wakeup callsites only handle non-bypass wakeups
in order not to wake up rcuo too early.

The timer also unconditionally executes a full barrier so as to order
timer_pending() and callback enqueue although the path performing
RCU_NOCB_WAKE_FORCE that makes use of it is debatable. It should also
test against the rdp leader instead of the current rdp.

This unconditional full barrier shouldn't bring visible overhead since
these timers almost never fire.

<title>rcu/nocb: Prepare for fine-grained deferred wakeup</title>

Tuning the deferred wakeup level must be done from a safe wakeup
point. Currently those sites are:

* -&gt;nocb_timer
* user/idle/guest entry
* CPU down
* softirq/rcuc

All of these sites perform the wake up for both RCU_NOCB_WAKE and
RCU_NOCB_WAKE_FORCE.

In order to merge -&gt;nocb_timer and -&gt;nocb_bypass_timer together, we plan
to add a new RCU_NOCB_WAKE_BYPASS that really should be deferred until
a timer fires so that we don't wake up the NOCB-gp kthread too early.

To prepare for that, this commit specifies the per-callsite wakeup
level/limit.
