At CPU offline time, we must handle any pending wakeup for the nocb_gp kthread linked to the outgoing CPU. Now we are making sure of that twice: 1) From rcu_report_dead() when the outgoing CPU makes the very last local cleanups by itself before switching offline. 2) From rcutree_dead_cpu(). Here the offlining CPU has gone and is truly now offline. Another CPU takes care of post-portem cleaning up and check if the offline CPU had pending wakeup. Both ways are fine but we have to choose one or the other because we don't need to repeat that action. Simply benefit from cache locality and keep only the first solution.

README
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.
