 133  * When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
 134  * are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
 135  * synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
 136  * CPUs exit their critical sections.  Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
 137  * on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
 138  * sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
 139  * until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
 140  *
 141  * Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
 142  * with RCU read-side critical sections.  One way that this can happen
 143  * is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
 144  * read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
 145  * an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
 146  * (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
 147  * callback is invoked.  This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
 148  * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
 149  * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
 150  * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
 151  * RCU callback is invoked.
 152  *
 153  * RCU read-side critical sections may be nested.  Any deferred actions
 154  * will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
 155  * completes.
 156  *
 157  * It is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section.
