In kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y, set
the specified list of CPUs to be no-callback CPUs.
- Invocation of these CPUs' RCU callbacks will
- be offloaded to "rcuox/N" kthreads created for
- that purpose, where "x" is "b" for RCU-bh, "p"
- for RCU-preempt, and "s" for RCU-sched, and "N"
- is the CPU number. This reduces OS jitter on the
- offloaded CPUs, which can be useful for HPC and
- real-time workloads. It can also improve energy
- efficiency for asymmetric multiprocessors.
