Paul E. McKenney fb77dccfc7 rcu: Decrease FQS scan wait time in case of callback overloading
The force-quiesce-state loop function rcu_gp_fqs_loop() checks for
callback overloading and does an immediate initial scan for idle CPUs
if so.  However, subsequent rescans will be carried out at as leisurely a
rate as they always are, as specified by the rcutree.jiffies_till_next_fqs
module parameter.  It might be tempting to just continue immediately
rescanning, but this turns the RCU grace-period kthread into a CPU hog.
It might also be tempting to reduce the time between rescans to a single
jiffy, but this can be problematic on larger systems.

This commit therefore divides the normal time between rescans by three,
rounding up.  Thus a small system running at HZ=1000 that is suffering
from callback overload will wait only one jiffy instead of the normal
three between rescans.
