And I believe that I found my bug in this commit (lots more testing still
required, but the preponderance of evidence and all that):

2cc0c7f07143 ("rcu: Eliminate ->rcu_qs_ctr from the rcu_dynticks structure")

So it really isn't your fault.

Of course, the real reason for the lack of fault on your part will not
because I believe I found the bug elsewhere, but instead because I will
be dropping your patch (and mine as well) on Frederic's advice.  ;-)

							Thanx, Paul
