Later I will submit a full rcu_ltimer patch that contains the call_rcu_preempt() interface which can be useful for module unloading and the likes. This doesn't affect the non-preemption path.You don't need this: I've dropped the requirement for module unload.Isn't wait_for_later() similar to synchornize_kernel() or has the entire module unloading design been changed since ?
Yes, that was *days* ago 8) I now just use a synchronize_kernel() which schedules on every CPU, and disable preempt in magic places. Ingo growled at me...
