rcu: Avoid redundant grace-period kthread wakeups
When setting up an in-the-future "advanced" grace period, the code needs to wake up the relevant grace-period kthread, which it currently does unconditionally. However, this results in needless wakeups in the case where the advanced grace period is being set up by the grace-period kthread itself, which is a non-uncommon situation. This commit therefore checks to see if the running thread is the grace-period kthread, and avoids doing the irq_work_queue()-mediated wakeup in that case. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
