If we allow architectures to bring APs online in parallel, then we end up requiring rcu_cpu_starting() to be reentrant. But currently, the manipulation of rnp->ofl_seq is not thread-safe. However, rnp->ofl_seq is also fairly much pointless anyway since both rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() hold rcu_state.ofl_lock for fairly much the whole time that rnp->ofl_seq is set to an odd number to indicate that an operation is in progress. So drop rnp->ofl_seq completely, and use only rcu_state.ofl_lock. This has a couple of minor complexities: lockdep will complain when we take rcu_state.ofl_lock, and currently accepts the 'excuse' of having an odd value in rnp->ofl_seq. So switch it to an arch_spinlock_t to avoid that false positive complaint. Since we're killing rnp->ofl_seq of course that 'excuse' has to be changed too, so make it check for arch_spin_is_locked(rcu_state.ofl_lock). There's no arch_spin_lock_irqsave() so we have to manually save and restore local interrupts around the locking. At Paul's request based on Neeraj's analysis, make rcu_gp_init not just wait but *exclude* any CPU online/offline activity, which was fairly much true already by virtue of it holding rcu_state.ofl_lock.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
