-# Check for expedited grace periods that interrupt non-idle non-nohz
-# online CPUs. These expedited can therefore degrade real-time response
-# if used carelessly, and should be avoided where not absolutely
-# needed. It is always OK to use synchronize_rcu_expedited() and
-# synchronize_sched_expedited() at boot time (before real-time applications
-# start) and in error situations where real-time response is compromised in
-# any case. Note that synchronize_srcu_expedited() does -not- interrupt
-# other CPUs, so don't warn on uses of synchronize_srcu_expedited().
-# Of course, nothing comes for free, and srcu_read_lock() and
-# srcu_read_unlock() do contain full memory barriers in payment for
-# synchronize_srcu_expedited() non-interruption properties.
