rcu: Elevate priority of offloaded callback threads
When CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y, the rcutree.kthread_prio command-line parameter signals initialization code to boost the priority of rcuc callbacks to the designated value. With the additional CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y configuration and an additional rcu_nocbs command-line parameter, the callbacks on the listed cores are offloaded to new rcuop kthreads that are not pinned to the cores whose post-grace-period work is performed. While the rcuop kthreads perform the same function as the rcuc kthreads they offload, the kthread_prio parameter only boosts the priority of the rcuc kthreads. Fix this inconsistency by elevating rcuop kthreads to the same priority as the rcuc kthreads. Signed-off-by: Alison Chaiken <achaiken@aurora.tech> Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
