When the RCU Tasks scanning on-rq tasks, there is no need to scanning
tasks which record on dyntick-idle entry, at this time, these tasks are
not remain within an RCU Tasks read-side critical section.

This commit skip scanning tasks which record on dyntick-idle entry in
rcu_tasks_pertask().

You lost me with this one.  Doesn't the rcu_tasks_pertask() function
already exclude the idle tasks that might possibly be running in
dyntick-idle state in non-CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL systems?

What am I missing here?

							Thanx, Paul

Thanks for reply.
Yes, the is_idle_task() can remove from task_is_on_dyntick_idle().
And the is_idle_task() can also remove from warnings in check_holdout_task(), because 
the rcu _tasks_pertask() already exclude the idle tasks. Is my understanding correct?

Thanks
Zqiang
