So I still can add it back and amend the changelog and comment: Change the condition from !rcu_is_watching() to is_idle_task(current) || rcu_is_watching() which enforces that interrupts in the idle task unconditionally invoke rcu_irq_enter() independent of the RCU state. For most scenarios is_idle_task() would be sufficient but Task RCU needs it according to Paul. Thanks, tglx
