documentation: Emphasize the call_rcu() is illegal from idle Although call_rcu()'s fastpath works just fine on an idle CPU, some branches of the slowpath invoke the scheduler, which uses RCU. Therefore, this commit emphasizes the fact that call_rcu() must not be invoked from an idle CPU. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
